Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Richard Riddick (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Pedro Lazaro (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Riddick's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Ture Nature by Jane's Addiction. 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.
