Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Bubba Gump (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Uther Champy (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Gump's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Fucking Hostile - Pantera. The crowd seem to be enjoying Champy's choice of entrance music: Cage the Elephant - Ain't No Rest for the Wicked. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
