Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Anthony Kiedis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kid Torres (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Kiedis kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Extacy-DJ Tiesto. Torres has chosen Adagio For Strings as his entrance music. Kid Torres 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!
