Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Keith Green (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tyler Mayfield (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Green kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Supersonic - Jamiroquai. Mayfield is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Dean Martin - Ain't That a Kick in the Head. Tyler Mayfield is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Cain Marko (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Christopher Samba (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Marko comes to the cage accompanied by Unstoppable-E.S. Posthumus. The crowd seem to be enjoying Samba's choice of entrance music: Bezerker by Love Among Freaks. 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?
