Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Gus Dengel (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Byron Nelson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Dengel kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Wat Kyk Jy?. Nelson has chosen Young Jeezy - Go Hard as his entrance music. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
