Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Koya Chekutimi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Larry Layman (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chekutimi kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Jay Z - Run This Town. Well, the cameraman is lingering on a pretty young lady for a bit too long there. Keep your eyes on the fighters buddy or you'll miss the fighter intros!
