Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Electro Stalin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Roman Zentsov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Stalin comes to the cage accompanied by Hell March. Zentsov is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by In my sight. 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 Roman Zentsov was going to win. Let's see if he was right.

Undercard bout

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Demo Man (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dariusz Ruslan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Man comes to the cage accompanied by THE PRODIGY - voodoo people. The crowd seem to be enjoying Ruslan's choice of entrance music: Hester Prynne. 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.
