Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Lewis McLay (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Manny Pacquiao (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). McLay's entrance music is "The Party Song" by Blink 182. A fine choice. Pacquiao has chosen Outta your mind as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Manny Pacquiao has the power to score a knockout today if he connects clean with Lewis McLay's chin.
