Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Your Mom (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Carlos Gracie (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Mom comes to the cage accompanied by Ameno by ERA. Gracie has chosen "The Hunter" by Persuader as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Rumors backstage are that the fighters have been paid to keep it standing but we know that would never happen in MMA!
