Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Sinuhe Egyptian (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sam Hall (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Egyptian kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Egyptian Entrance Song. Hall is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by AC/DC - Hell's Bells. 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.
