Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Dante Cartwright (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Roger Gracie (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Gracie is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Im On One. 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.
