Undercard bout

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Jean Pierre Babin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Alfa Uros (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Babin's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, South Park - Let's Fighting Love. Uros comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Dirty Diana kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! 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.
