Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Duane Carman (ranked 4048 p4p, 502 weight class) and Josh Wade (ranked 2257 p4p, 309 weight class). Wade has chosen 2Pac - Hail Mary as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
