Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Marcus Ferrari (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Rex Apollo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ferrari comes to the cage accompanied by Single Ladies - Brazilian Version. Apollo has chosen My Bloody Valentine - Loomer as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
