Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Petr Antonovich (ranked 291 p4p, 42 weight class) and Daniel Orndorf (ranked 500 p4p, 77 weight class). Orndorf has chosen Wrecking Ball - Andrew Baena 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.
