Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Panda Aorigele (ranked 91 p4p, 130 weight class) and Felix Inarritu (ranked 13 p4p, 16 weight class). Aorigele's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Mama Said Knock You Out. Inarritu is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Vulcano. 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.
