Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Eta Nurburgring (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Prcko Strcko (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Nurburgring's entrance music is Asaf Avidan - One day. A fine choice. Strcko comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Destiny Childs - Soldier kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! 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.
