Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Tony Freeman (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and TooReal Snow (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Freeman's entrance music is Def Leppard - Let's Get Rocked. A fine choice. The crowd seem to be enjoying Snow's choice of entrance music: Through the Fire and Flames. TooReal Snow 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!
