Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Alex Andre (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Karl De Groot (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Andre kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Memories- Guetta. 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?
