Undercard bout

Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Anselmi Hamara (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tamias Poochyena (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hamara kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Ruoska - Kiroan. Poochyena has chosen This Life - Curtis Stigers & The Forest Rangers 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.
