Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jeremy Tonal (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Smokudju Womba (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Tonal comes to the ring accompanied by Mustasch - I hunt alone. Womba has chosen Ludacris - Blueberry Yum Yum as his entrance music. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
