Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Tucker Thomas (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Alaric Visigoth (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Thomas kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Get Off On The Pain - Gary Allan . Visigoth has chosen THUNDERSTRUCK as his entrance music. Alaric Visigoth told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
