Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Alexandros Nicolaou (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Felipe Del Santos (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Nicolaou's entrance music is Anubis. A fine choice. Del Santos has chosen Duality by Slipknot as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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 Felipe Del Santos was going to win. Let's see if he was right.

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Junior Beck (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Oba Bakker (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Beck might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to "Lunatic Fringe" by Red Rider. Bakker has chosen Biggie Smalls & Puff Daddy - Victory as his entrance music. Oba Bakker is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
