Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Slim Crowe (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Duck Tycoon (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Crowe's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Noah Gundersen - Oh Death. Tycoon has chosen Rubber Ducky 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.
