Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ansgar Axelsson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jim Degrizz (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Axelsson's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, one bourbon one scotch one beer. Degrizz has chosen Battle in prison as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the ring.

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Bode Muller (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Arvo Laar (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Muller kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Feuer Frei. Laar has chosen some random 90's estonia dance song i found on youtube as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
