Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Tribal Chief (ranked 2005 p4p, 2367 weight class) and Lucian Lindsey (ranked 181 p4p, 0 weight class). Chief kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Roman reigns entrance.
