Undercard bout

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Kane Williams (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Maurico Hates Decisions (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Williams's entrance music is Celebration by Kool and the Gang. A fine choice. Hates Decisions has chosen Defqon Ending! 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.
