Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Charlie Alaniz (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Denis Burza (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Alaniz comes to the cage accompanied by Slippin. Burza has chosen Du Hast - Rammstein 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.
