Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Nobuhiro Nakamura (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Cain Marko (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Nakamura's entrance music is Breathe. A fine choice. 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.
