Undercard bout

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Gary Hayes (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Vance Kincaid (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hayes kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genuis that is 50cent - I´ll WHIP YA HEAD BOY. Kincaid has chosen Let the Bodies Hit the Floor by Drowning Pool as his entrance music. Gary Hayes looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
