Undercard bout

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Adam Groenberg (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Hades Underworld (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Groenberg's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Zombiekrig - Hĺll käften ge mig dina pengar. Underworld is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Mr. Torture. 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.

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Tommy Farr (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tony Mortimer (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Farr's entrance music is Welsh National Anthem. A fine choice. 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 Tony Mortimer was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
