Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Tarzan Taborda (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and The Legendary Tonying (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Taborda kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is New Noise by Refused. Tonying has chosen NAS - Hate Me Now as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both fighters look pumped up here. Let's hope this is a good fight!
