Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Tyrone Frazier (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bariga Cocainich (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Frazier's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, James Brown - Living In America. Cocainich has chosen Будущее 9эт as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Bariga Cocainich has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jason Krutcher (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Shaun Russell (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Krutcher might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Fun Things - Savage. Russell has chosen LL Cool J - Mama Said Knock You Out as his entrance music. 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.
