Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Damien Bullit (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ara Vahaber (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bullit kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Enter Sandman. Vahaber has chosen Dr.Dre ft. Snoop Dogg - Still Dre as his entrance music. Ara Vahaber has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
