Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Steve Cranzinski (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Josh Slaughter (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Cranzinski's entrance music is Aenima. A fine choice. Slaughter has chosen Bulldozer - Goldishack Guerrillas as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Well, the cameraman is lingering on a pretty young lady for a bit too long there. Keep your eyes on the fighters buddy or you'll miss the fighter intros!
