Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Daniel Kukuczka (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and James Sansom (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Kukuczka comes to the cage accompanied by J.O.D. - Musica Knockout. The crowd seem to be enjoying Sansom's choice of entrance music: PUBLIC DOMAIN - Operation Blade. 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.
