Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Cody Shelton (ranked 1513 p4p, 2567 weight class) and Arctic Char (ranked 152 p4p, 229 weight class). Shelton's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Heart-Magic Man. Char is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Ice Ice Baby - Vanilla Ice. 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.
