Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Outlaw Hardy (ranked 2918 p4p, 336 weight class) and James Penn (ranked 2817 p4p, 323 weight class). Penn has chosen Everything in its right place as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
