Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between James Gatzby (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Donnie Rose (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Gatzby kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Gatsby's American Dream - Theatre. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Donnie Rose was going to win. Let's see if he was right.

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Lester Howell (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tyrone Biggums (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Biggums has chosen ThunderStruck as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
