Cooper comes to the cage accompanied by LL Cool J - Mama Said Knock You Out. Trask has chosen "Inner Light" by Schocking Lemon as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Rumors backstage are that the fighters have been paid to keep it standing but we know that would never happen in MMA!
