Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Brian Redban (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Lazerus Wheelright (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Redban might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to M83 - Midnight City. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Joey Dixon (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Pelle Hermanni (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Dixon kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Dark Tranquillity - Iridium. Hermanni is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Hatin on Me-Dizzy Wright. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Darby Gordon (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and John Barnes (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Gordon might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to United Booty Foundation. Darby Gordon is staring across the cage at his opponent, tweaking his nipples... Tweaking his own nipples that is.
