Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Silver Back (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Robert Wiltsie (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Back's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, One 24. Wiltsie has chosen Mein Herz Brennt 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.
