Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Sakke Somali (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Nemean Athos (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Somali kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Sakke - Oonhan Suomalainen. Athos is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Thundercats. Well, the cameraman is lingering on a pretty young lady for a bit too long there. Keep your eyes on the fighters buddy or you'll miss the fighter intros!

Judge Hugh Johnson scores the fight 30:27
In favor of your winner, by unanimous decision... Enitan Olufunmilola!
Enitan Olufunmilola very nearly forgot to thank Vandal Fight Boutique (prices $8 - $30) amongst all the excitement of his win but just as the interview came to a close, he screamed their name. Hopefully he'll get a few nice freebies in the mail as a thank you.
