Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Neal Titus (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Taichi Heleno (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Titus's entrance music is 'Till We Die - Slipknot. A fine choice. Heleno has chosen weird Japanese music as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Taichi Heleno has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
