Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Papoh Bamoya (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Buck Norris (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bamoya kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Lupang Hinirang. Norris has chosen Six Feet Under - Lycanthropy as his entrance music. 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.
