Undercard bout

Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Ari Birmiski (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Hugo Veron (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Birmiski kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is I'm Back - T.I. Veron has chosen Breathe - Prodigy as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Ari Birmiski has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
