Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Angelito Barraquinha (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tota Liddel (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Barraquinha's entrance music is The Mamas & The Papas - Dream a little dream of me. A fine choice. Liddel is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Ektomorf - Show your fist. 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.
