Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Taz McKane (ranked 509 p4p, 1086 weight class) and Jacques Bonaparte (ranked 69 p4p, 151 weight class). McKane comes to the cage accompanied by SAVE ME. Bonaparte has chosen Daft Punk - Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger as his entrance music.
