Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mach II (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Darby Gordon (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). II kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Ace of Spades. Gordon has chosen United Booty Foundation as his entrance music. Mach II has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
