Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Slade Traylor (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Corey Parker (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Parker has chosen Heard it through the grapevine - Marvin Gaye as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Corey Parker 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!
