Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Frank Morrison (ranked 1608 p4p, 1508 weight class) and Marshal Mayhem (ranked 196 p4p, 191 weight class). Morrison kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is March. I don't know about you partner, but I'm pumped for this one!
