Undercard bout

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Henry Trowning (ranked 1006 p4p, 99 weight class) and Eddie Gelfen (ranked 2864 p4p, 260 weight class). Trowning kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Shotgun - backyard brawl. 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.
