Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Callum Adams (ranked 2583 p4p, 254 weight class) and Johnny McCartney (ranked 2689 p4p, 261 weight class). Adams kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is No Noncesense. The crowd seem to be enjoying McCartney 's choice of entrance music: Fade to Black- Metallica. Well, the cameraman is lingering on a pretty young lady for a bit too long there. Keep your eyes on the prize buddy or you'll miss the fighter intros!
