Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Bob Johansson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Gustavo Ramirez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Johansson's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Electro Rock. Ramirez has chosen White Wizzard - Gates Of Gehenna as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Gustavo Ramirez has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
