Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Fred Young (ranked 144 p4p, 192 weight class) and Wang Jang Jai (ranked 10 p4p, 14 weight class). Young's entrance music is Real Ganja Man. A fine choice. Jang Jai has chosen Snake Shadow as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
