Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Jakob Tyler (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Uwe Hirschmann (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Tyler kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Throw the Heat - Mortician. Hirschmann has chosen Ein Zwei Polizei 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.
