Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Joey De Andreas (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Roddy Piper (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). De Andreas's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Free Bird by Leonard Skynard. Piper has chosen Real Men Wear Skirts 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.
