Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Gabriel Dickson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bocks Rguy (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Dickson comes to the cage accompanied by Till I Collapse. 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 Bocks Rguy was going to win. Let's see if he was right.

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mark Sims (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mike Kooch (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Kooch has chosen Rusko - Tru Powwa 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.
