Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Tunying Jedi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Turk Ransel (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Jedi kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Binilanggo. Ransel is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Bro Hymm- Pennywise. Tunying Jedi has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
