Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Hiro Protagonist (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Gentleman Ghost (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Protagonist might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Teenage Bottlerocket - Bigger Than Kiss. Ghost has chosen Castle in the Mist as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
