Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Rosco P Coltrane (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Pepe LePew (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Coltrane kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Bleed. LePew has chosen Smoke Serpent- as his entrance music. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Tom Mot (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bobby Hill (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Mot's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Be Aggresive by Faith No More. 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.
