Undercard bout

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Andy Maurice (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Idris Omar (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Maurice comes to the cage accompanied by Doce Discipulos. Omar has chosen adu-kein scherz as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
