Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Chan Lei (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dokonjonosuke Fujisaki (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lei's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Rising Dawn. Fujisaki is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Welcome to the Jungle - Guns N' Roses. Chan Lei could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Dokonjonosuke Fujisaki's chin.
