Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Ricardo Soares (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jake Creed (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Soares kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Vida Loka Parte 1. Creed has chosen Welcome To The Jungle as his entrance music. Well, the cameraman is lingering on a pretty young lady for a bit too long there. Keep your eyes on the fighters buddy or you'll miss the fighter intros!
