Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Mini Bard (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Harry Kalas (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bard comes to the cage accompanied by It's Catching Up (NoMeansNo). The crowd seem to be enjoying Kalas's choice of entrance music: shut em down. 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.
