Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Thomas Benjamin Jr (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jirka Fukala (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Benjamin Jr kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Beheaded in Paris by Cradled To Grave. Fukala has chosen Baby Bash featuring T-Pain as his entrance music. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.

Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Napoleon Bonaparte (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mike Corey Jr (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bonaparte comes to the cage accompanied by An Epic Age. Napoleon Bonaparte had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 146.8lbs, he had two hours to make the official fight weight. He made it but it will have taken a lot out of him to cut those extra few pounds.

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between The Munster (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Simbo Klice (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class).
