Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Furio Falcone (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Diego Rios (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Falcone comes to the cage accompanied by Hatebreed - Live for this. Rios is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Forever. 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.
