Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mike Litoris (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Quinton Adolfson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Litoris's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Khia - My Neck, my Back. The crowd seem to be enjoying Adolfson's choice of entrance music: homie hymne. 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.
