Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Cody Grant (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Earl Bertane (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Grant might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Alice in Chains - Rooster. Bertane comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Eminem-Go To Sleep Ft. Obie Trice And DMX kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Earl Bertane told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Rantis Gaumpe (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jake Rodrigues (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Gaumpe's entrance music is TRIBAL SEEDS- AWAY. A fine choice. Rodrigues comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Joe Walsh - In the City kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! On his way into the cage it seems that Rantis Gaumpe has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Rantis Gaumpe seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
