Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Kai Kona (ranked 884 p4p, 592 weight class) and Olyn Seran (ranked 105 p4p, 71 weight class). Kona kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is A Warriors Call. Seran has chosen Sound of Silence - Disturbed as his entrance music. 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.
