Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mike Bison (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dino Adams (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bison comes to the ring accompanied by M. Bison Theme. Adams is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Rush - Limelight. Mike Bison had real problems making weight for this fight.
