Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Jisoo Oh (ranked 2554 p4p, 1483 weight class) and Ray Ruthlessness (ranked 332 p4p, 204 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Ruthlessness's choice of entrance music: Meek Mill - Going Bad (feat. Drake). 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.
