Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Berry Frost (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jones Shane (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Frost comes to the cage accompanied by Usher - Hot Toddy Ft. Jay-Z (Prod by Polow tha Don) *NEW 2010* HOT [HQ] . Shane has chosen Elephant Man - Haters (feat Hunt & Jim Jones) 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.
