Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Derrick Rose (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Anthony Almeida (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Rose's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Mama Said Knock You Out. Almeida has chosen 24 theme song as his entrance music. 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.
