Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Rafael Mendes (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Slash The Master Of Disaster (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Mendes's entrance music is Roy Jones - Can't be touched. A fine choice. The Master Of Disaster has chosen Thundersturck as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Slash The Master Of Disaster will no doubt be trying to keep this one on the feet, where he has a distinct advantage.
