Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Timur Rubin (ranked 123 p4p, 14 weight class) and Ueda Umanouke (ranked 450 p4p, 41 weight class). Umanouke has chosen Kenji Kawai's Making of a Cyborg as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
