Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Felipe Moreira (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dewey Cox (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Moreira's entrance music is Samba de janeiro - bellini. A fine choice. The crowd seem to be enjoying Cox's choice of entrance music: Guilty As Charged. Dewey Cox struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 186.4lbs 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. I don't know about you partner, but I'm pumped for this one!

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Russel Ebert (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jason Montros (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ebert's entrance music is Mean Street - Van Halen. A fine choice. Montros has chosen Going Under - Evanescence as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. On his way into the cage it seems that Russel Ebert has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Russel Ebert seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Yang Tao (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Zaq Wu Sang (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Tao comes to the cage accompanied by Carl Douglas - Kung Fu Fighting. Wu Sang has chosen Europe - Rock the Night as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
