Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Alan Bundy (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jonathan Trott (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Bundy might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to God Hates a Coward. Trott has chosen Cochise - Audioslave as his entrance music. Jonathan Trott has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Daniel Speed (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Binzo Binzo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Speed might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Amon Tobin / El Cargo. Binzo has chosen Hair of the Dog by Nazareth 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.
