Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Tommy MacKenzie (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dwight Elkins (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). MacKenzie kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Kettel - My Dogan . The crowd seem to be enjoying Elkins's choice of entrance music: Care Bear Countdown. Dwight Elkins told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Wooden Pencil (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dickie Crash (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Pencil's entrance music is Full Retard. A fine choice. 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 Dickie Crash was going to win. Let's see if he was right.

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Andrzej Niedzwiedzki (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ashy Larry (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class).
