Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Emeka Shakur (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kevin Lockley (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Shakur comes to the cage accompanied by Tatanka - Africa. Lockley has chosen Disney's Gummy Bears Intro (Rus) as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd.
