Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Barry Brewster (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and James McKenna (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Brewster's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Bodies. McKenna has chosen scotland the brave as his entrance music. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
