Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Ralph Miller (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Cono McGregor (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). McGregor has chosen foggy dew as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Fingers crossed for an exciting fight - I'm sure both fighters are looking for a nice under the table bonus!
