Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Kalmin Maltusuri (ranked 3583 p4p, 427 weight class) and Jack Chandler (ranked 4269 p4p, 484 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Chandler's choice of entrance music: Led Zeppelin - When the levee breaks. Both these guys have really solid chins.
