Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Callum Adams (ranked 575 p4p, 1503 weight class) and Noah Berthier (ranked 81 p4p, 206 weight class). Adams's entrance music is No Noncesense. A fine choice. Berthier comes into a darkened arena with his song building. La Strasbourgeoise kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! I don't know about you partner, but I'm pumped for this one!
