Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Christopher Newton (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and David Schneider (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Newton's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, She Knows. Schneider has chosen What Would David Schneider Do? as his entrance music. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that David Schneider was going to win. Let's see if he was right.

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Jeff Zumo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Alexandre Dumas (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Dumas has chosen The Writer as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that Jeff Zumo has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Jeff Zumo seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
