Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Huell Babineaux (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Angus Maclennan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Babineaux's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Ready or Not. 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.
