Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Steve Rogers (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jay Cutler (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Rogers kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Real American. Cutler has chosen It's Not Over by Daughtry 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.
