Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Rubert Kuminauha (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Henry Chinaski (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Kuminauha kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Celine Dion - Just Walk Away. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
