Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Saito Shinji (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dude Love (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class).

He only made it down to 137.8lbs 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. Saito Shinji could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Dude Love's chin.

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Inyo Mahmi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Zagan Yehudiah (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Mahmi comes into the arena with Burning Season blaring out of the sound system. Both these guys are coming into the fight with injuries so let's see if that has a bearing on the fight. Zagan Yehudiah has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Joseph Jones (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Rusty Kuntz (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Jones comes to the cage accompanied by Alice in Chains - Them Bones. Jones has a slight injury, which hopefully won't affect the fight too much. 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.
