Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Russian Experiment II (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ronald Wright (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Experiment II comes to the cage accompanied by Terminator 2 - Bad to the Bone. Russian Experiment II had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 171.1lbs, 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. Over to our ring announcer for the fighter introductions!

Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Russian Experiment V (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bill Hicks (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hicks is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Bang Your Head. Russian Experiment V had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 146.2lbs, 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. Russian Experiment V has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
