Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Tommy Sanchez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Fusion Weapon (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Sanchez's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, "Stand your ground" by Acarine. Weapon has chosen Run This Town Tonight as his entrance music. Tommy Sanchez had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 146.2lbs, he had two hours to make the official fight weight. He made it but it will have taken a lot out of him to cut those extra few pounds. The crowd giving both fighters a great reception on their way into the arena. That's good to see.
