Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Gul Dukat (ranked 1582 p4p, 4052 weight class) and Walad Anubis (ranked 225 p4p, 467 weight class). Dukat kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Guillotine (Swordz) . 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.
