Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ong Bak (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Karim Montana (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bak's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, you've lost that loving feeling. Montana has chosen 100 as his entrance music. Ong Bak has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
