Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Kichiro Takaki (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Joe Crazy (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Takaki's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Kagaya, Shu, Takaki - Alexey Rybnikov . Crazy has chosen Crazy Train as his entrance music. 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.
