Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Johnny Rose (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tito Hopkins (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Rose comes to the cage accompanied by Another One Bites The Dust. Hopkins has chosen Public Enemy - Shut 'Em Down as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. On his way into the cage it seems that Johnny Rose has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Johnny Rose seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ares Constantinides (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ossi Jokinen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Constantinides might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to War by Judas Priest. The crowd seem to be enjoying Jokinen's choice of entrance music: Prodigy - Omen. 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.
