Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Mortimer Plumbtree (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Aleks Angelov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Plumbtree's entrance music is White and Nerdy. A fine choice. Angelov has chosen sexting 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.
