Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Andreas Bastos (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kalle Krook (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bastos kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is D-Nox & Beckers - One Shot (Flame On Fire Remix) . The crowd seem to be enjoying Krook's choice of entrance music: Courage. 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.
