Undercard bout

Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Zyd Torres (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Rene Bombom (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Torres's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Game Over. Bombom is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Black Eyed Peas - Boom Boom Pow. 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.
