Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Harrison Barnes (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Charlie Luciano (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Barnes's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, The Game-360 Bars. Luciano comes into a darkened arena with his song building. The Mechanic kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! 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.
