Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ollie Ritch (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Rampage Jockson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Jockson has chosen Can't Be Touched 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?

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Jack Dawkins (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Leo Barros (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class).

It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Jack Dawkins seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
