Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Markku Alarinne (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jay Mason (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Alarinne kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Chiquita Ska Band - American Jesus. Mason has chosen White Zombie - Electric Head Pt. 1 as his entrance music. 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.
