Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Kidney Stone (ranked 395 p4p, 932 weight class) and Klay Dee (ranked 20 p4p, 56 weight class). Stone's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Pour Some Sugar On Me by Def Leppord. Dee has chosen Tyler, The Creator - Who Dat Boy as his entrance music.
