Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Stephen Dyzer (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jack Ripper (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Dyzer's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, New Divide. The crowd seem to be enjoying Ripper's choice of entrance music: The Odorants - This Night. Stephen Dyzer could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Jack Ripper's chin.
