Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Manny Pacquiao (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Janek Kochanowski (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Pacquiao comes into the arena with Its Time for War blaring out of the sound system. Kochanowski has chosen Sting Of The Bumblebee as his entrance music. Both these guys have really solid chins.
