Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Oliver Pronser (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ambrozy Kleks (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Oliver Pronser had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 171.3lbs, 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. Oliver Pronser has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?

Undercard bout

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Gunner Hansen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Arturo Gatti III (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Hansen might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Prodigy - Breathe. Gatti III has chosen Black Milk & Royce 5'9 - Losing out 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?
