Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between George Pieru (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Brandon Duscaw (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Duscaw has chosen "I am the Walrus" by The Beatles as his entrance music. 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.
