Main event

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Nikolay Nechvidov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Todd Snap (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Snap has chosen Eye of the tiger as his entrance music. Nikolay Nechvidov looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
