Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Adelard Desormeaux (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Andre Walter (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Desormeaux kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Ça va venir découragez-vous pas ♫ . Walter has chosen Engel by Rammstein as his entrance music. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
