Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Daniel Wallace (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Leonard Rockstein (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Rockstein has chosen I'm just a Rock 'n' Roll Clown - Dr Rockzo as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
