Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Charlie Parsons (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bang McGee (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Parsons kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Call Me The Breeze. McGee is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Metallica - All Nightmare Long. 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.
