Undercard bout

Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Peter Stumpp (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Danny Miller (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Stumpp's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Symphony Of Destruction. Miller has chosen Frightened Rabbit - Modern Leper as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Danny Miller will no doubt be looking to use his reach advantage to good effect.

Undercard bout

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Joe Jordan Jr (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Daniel Negreanu (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Negreanu has chosen Make Her Say - Kid Cudi as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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 Daniel Negreanu was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
