Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Convicted Kelly (ranked 3157 p4p, 2225 weight class) and Frankie Rodriguez (ranked 395 p4p, 293 weight class). Kelly's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Bump and grind. 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.
