Undercard bout

Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Tae Shik Cha (ranked 3097 p4p, 2287 weight class) and Lester Limbaugh (ranked 294 p4p, 242 weight class). Cha's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Gaullin - Moonlight. Limbaugh has chosen TNT as his entrance music. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
