Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Hector Corpor (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mika Zibanejadass (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Corpor kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Can't Be Touched. 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?
