Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Louis Evans (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Duk Dong (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Evans comes to the cage accompanied by Panasonic Youth by The Dillinger Escape Plan. Dong has chosen Thompson Twins - If You Were Here as his entrance music. Duk Dong struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 147.4lbs at the first attempt and had to take the additional two hours to make the official bout weight. Let's see how much it's taken out of him. Duk Dong told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Johnny Rogers (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Len Nicodemo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class).
