Undercard bout

Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Boreste Bardanos (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Viktor Tsoi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bardanos's entrance music is My Kingdom Will Come. A fine choice. Tsoi comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Zvezda po Imeni Solnce kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! 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.

Main event

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jordi Joestar (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kajun Puno (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Joestar comes into the arena with Stand Proud blaring out of the sound system. Puno has chosen 軍神 as his entrance music.
