Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Aleksandar Kamenov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Alfredo Leija (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Kamenov kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Korn - Hey Daddy. Leija is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Original Nuttah. Aleksandar Kamenov could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Alfredo Leija 's chin.
