Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Chris Infamous (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Boxing Comte (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Infamous's entrance music is Maino - All The Above. A fine choice. Comte has chosen Laser life by Blood Brothers 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.
