Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Peter Coxwell (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jesper Rush (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Coxwell kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genuis that is Messiah by Konflict (Nosia Remix). Rush is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Tom Sawyer - Rush. 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.
