Undercard bout

Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Burnt Faceman (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Janusz Niekonieczny (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Faceman's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Dirt Road Anthem. Niekonieczny has chosen Metallica - Ride The Lightning as his entrance music. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
