Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Edgar Frankies (ranked 5026 p4p, 2769 weight class) and Gajah Mada (ranked 543 p4p, 359 weight class). Frankies's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Steady as she goes. Mada comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Fighter Mode kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Gajah Mada struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 172.1lbs at the first attempt and had to take the additional two hours to make the official bout weight. Let's see how much it's taken out of him. Edgar Frankies has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
