Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Pierre Silverhielm (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tyrell Summers (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Silverhielm kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Theme Tune to Islam. Summers has chosen Last Chance as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
