Hogan comes to the cage accompanied by The Game. Robinson has chosen Blur - Song 2 Remix as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Ricky Robinson told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
