Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Anthony Lombardo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Seymour Cake (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lombardo kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Nas - Got Yourself A Gun. Cake has chosen Stack Bundles - Far Rock America as his entrance music. Well, I have no idea who's going to take this one!
