Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between George Patton (ranked 1676 p4p, 70 weight class) and Lock Bresnar (ranked 1534 p4p, 66 weight class). Patton's entrance music is Keep your hands to yourself- Georgia Satellites. A fine choice. Bresnar has chosen ABOVE THE LAW - murder rap as his entrance music. 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.
