Undercard bout

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Demian Maia (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Battling Bob (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Maia kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Vida Bandida. Bob has chosen Depeche Mode - Enjoy The Silence as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Battling Bob is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
