Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Hassan Dehu (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bosco Iwoba (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Iwoba is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Hercules*. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
