Undercard bout

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Hawk Henson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Lloyd Christmas (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Henson's entrance music is Highway To Hell By ACDC. A fine choice. Christmas has chosen Mocking Bird as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Lloyd Christmas told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
