Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Carlos Gracie (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Janjalani Abu Bakhar (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Gracie comes to the cage accompanied by Total War - The Shogun II. Abu Bakhar is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Allah Wakbar. 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.
