Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Russel Ebert (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Alun James (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ebert's entrance music is Mean Street - Van Halen. A fine choice. James is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Carry Me Home. 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.
