Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Doc Thomas (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Keith Green (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Thomas kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Lunatic Fringe by Red Ryder. Green has chosen Supersonic - Jamiroquai 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.
