Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Otto Kaikkonen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Houston Sprewell (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Kaikkonen's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Duran Duran - WIld Boys. Sprewell has chosen Jay-Z Feat. Swizz Beatz - On To The Next One as his entrance music. Fingers crossed for an exciting fight - I'm sure both fighters are looking for a nice under the table bonus!
