Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Juan Dela Cruz (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Test SubMan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Dela Cruz kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Mariachi Music. SubMan has chosen Tickle Me Elmo as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both fighters look pumped up here. Let's hope this is a good fight!
