Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Bornas Lopette (ranked 3852 p4p, 385 weight class) and Paul Poulter (ranked 8969 p4p, 690 weight class). Lopette kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Root Of All Evil. 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.
