Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between AkoSii MangJose (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Vitali Jurcina (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). AkoSii MangJose had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 186.8lbs, 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. Well, the cameraman is lingering on a pretty young lady for a bit too long there. Keep your eyes on the prize buddy or you'll miss the fighter intros!

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Radoslaw Michalak (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and James Afolabi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class).

James Afolabi has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
