Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Damien Silva (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ryan Davis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Silva kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genuis that is The Who's Love, Reign o'er Me. Davis has chosen Get Out the Way-Hollywood Undead as his entrance music. Well, I have no idea who's going to take this one!
