Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Celito Gracie (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sam Slam (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Gracie might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Eye of the Tiger. Slam has chosen Fire it up as his entrance music. Celito Gracie looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Kris Crunkel (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Marvin Chew (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Crunkel's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Am I Evil. Chew has chosen Heart of a Champion as his entrance music. Kris Crunkel had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 171.6lbs, 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. Over to our ring announcer for the fighter introductions!
