Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Manningham Snapple (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sendo Takeshi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Snapple's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Young Money-YM Salute. Takeshi has chosen 2Pac - Hit 'Em Up as his entrance music. Manningham Snapple had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 171.0lbs, he had two hours to make the official fight weight. He made it but it will have taken a lot out of him to cut those extra few pounds. Both fighters really staring eachother down here, as Sendo Takeshi enters the cage!
