Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Muuka Laine (ranked 1711 p4p, 2465 weight class) and Leo Vuce (ranked 105 p4p, 142 weight class). Laine kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Thats Not Me. Vuce has chosen MC Yankoo as his entrance music. Well, the cameraman is lingering on a pretty young lady for a bit too long there. Keep your eyes on the prize buddy or you'll miss the fighter intros!
