Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Moe Lester (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Rodel Hiligaynon (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lester kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Twisted. Hiligaynon has chosen Down and Out as his entrance music. Rumors backstage are that the fighters have been paid to keep it standing but we know that would never happen in MMA!
