Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Antoine Gagnon (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Vlaimir Cuschenko (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Cuschenko has chosen T.A.T.U - Prostye Dvizhen'ya as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Vlaimir Cuschenko has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
