Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Martin Saint Louis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Puntti Manne (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Saint Louis comes to the cage accompanied by Nique La Police. The crowd seem to be enjoying Manne's choice of entrance music: Edguy - Two Out of Seven. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
