Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Summa Sector (ranked 147 p4p, 210 weight class) and Ife Edwards (ranked 21 p4p, 30 weight class). Sector kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is For Heavy Metal we will die!. Edwards is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Damian Marley - Road to Zion. 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.
