Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Mike Mercurious (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Pasi Rauha (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Rauha has chosen Age of Aquarius as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
