Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Krzysztof Ostrowski (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Luiz Araujo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ostrowski's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, PC Park - Klatka. Araujo has chosen Who Shot Ya? 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?
