Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Tatjaana Rakopaljaana (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Nonito Donaire (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Rakopaljaana's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Juno, VilleGalle, Jare, Matinpoika - Urheiluhullu . Donaire has chosen Filipino Flash - Nump as his entrance music. 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.
