Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Hunter Hendricks (ranked 1409 p4p, 2105 weight class) and Tommy Santoro (ranked 171 p4p, 249 weight class). Hendricks's entrance music is Cowboy - Kid Rock. A fine choice. Santoro has chosen MERCURY 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.
