Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Ty Ruud (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Siah Battle (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Ruud might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Peter Gabriel: Sledgehammer. Battle comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Defintion Of A Mohawk kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! I don't know about you partner, but I'm pumped for this one!
