Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Saul Hudson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Curtis Payne (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hudson kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is NightTrain. Payne has chosen Limp Bizkit - Break Stuff as his entrance music. Well, I have no idea who's going to take this one!
