Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Aaron McSlugg (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dana Whyte (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). McSlugg's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, mcslugg custom anthem..... Whyte has chosen Imagine - John Lennon as his entrance music. Aaron McSlugg looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
