Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Basje Schrauwen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jimmy Sikblood (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Schrauwen's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Arsonist's Prayer by Catharsis. The crowd seem to be enjoying Sikblood's choice of entrance music: Brotha Lynch Hung - Welcome 2 Your Own Death. Jimmy Sikblood is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
