Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Peyton Rudger (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Vain Celasquez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Rudger's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, 2pac When We Ride On Our Enemies. Celasquez has chosen Kid Frost - La Raza as his entrance music. Well, the cameraman is lingering on a pretty young lady for a bit too long there. Keep your eyes on the prize buddy or you'll miss the fighter intros!
