Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Jan Kriel (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Anderson Silva (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Kriel's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Fokofpolisiekar - Fokofpolisiekar. 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.
