Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Willy Thompson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Popeye Mcgrady (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Thompson kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Another one bites the dust. Mcgrady has chosen Johnny Cash - God's Gonna Cut You Down 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.
