Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Bam Margera (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jimmy McNulty (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Margera comes to the cage accompanied by ILL MIND OF HOPSIN 5. McNulty has chosen Enter Sandman by Metallica as his entrance music. 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.
