Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Lucas LaVey (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Cleveland Brown (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). LaVey kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Deicide - Scars of the Crucifix. Brown is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Cleveland Brown Rap. 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.
