Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Ben Bigras (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dexter Shields (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Shields has chosen Swagga Like Us by T.I. as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Ben Bigras looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
