Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Pan Teon (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Steve Orvel (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Orvel has chosen Iron Maiden The Wicker Man as his entrance music. Teon is coming into this fight with a significant injury, which will no doubt have an effect on his cardio. Pan Teon looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Adam Peri (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and James White (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Peri might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Anthem of Israel. White is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by gLAdiator - Magnum. 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 James White was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
