Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Ludovicus De Jong (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Eino Nappi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Nappi has chosen O Fortuna as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Eino Nappi told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
