Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Peguero Jean Philippe (ranked 1639 p4p, 905 weight class) and Barack Obaminator (ranked 226 p4p, 120 weight class). Philippe's entrance music is Chant vaudou haitien. A fine choice. Obaminator has chosen Gil Scott-Herron - The Revolution Will Not Be Televised as his entrance music. Both these guys have solid standup skills and neither is particularly fantastic on the ground, so let's hope for a nice standup war!
