Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Cameron Sizzle (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ronaldo Souza (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Sizzle's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, "Russian Privjet". The crowd seem to be enjoying Souza's choice of entrance music: Mv Bill - Marginal Menestrel . Ronaldo Souza has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?

Undercard bout

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Alex Price (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bill Sanders (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Alex Price had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 156.9lbs, he had two hours to make the official fight weight. He made it but it will have taken a lot out of him to cut those extra few pounds. Alex Price is staring across the cage at his opponent, tweaking his nipples... Tweaking his own nipples that is.
