Winslow comes to the cage accompanied by Win In The End - Mark Safan. Nayati has chosen Indian Calling - At War as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
