Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Tiki Toke (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and King Johnson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Toke comes to the cage accompanied by Saturday Nigts All Right For Fighting. Johnson has chosen Johnny Cash - The Man Comes Around as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
