Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Mirko Boban (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Douglas Qwasnatmetaker (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Boban's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Fabolous - It´s my time. Qwasnatmetaker has chosen Prodigy - Smack my bitch up as his entrance music. Both these fighters are unbeaten, so somebody's 0 has got to go!Both these guys have solid standup skills and neither is particularly fantastic on the ground, so let's hope for a nice standup war!
