Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Attila Hun (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Lefteris Papaioanou (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hun's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Nirvana - The Man Who Sold The World. 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?
