Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mozes Amaury (ranked 1557 p4p, 244 weight class) and Sol Kwon (ranked 1231 p4p, 200 weight class). On his way into the cage it seems that Mozes Amaury has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Mozes Amaury seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?

Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Ebyn Dall (ranked 186 p4p, 23 weight class) and Sergey Panikov (ranked 292 p4p, 37 weight class). Dall's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Under the Blood. The crowd seem to be enjoying Panikov's choice of entrance music: Fighters. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Dave Semenko (ranked 66 p4p, 10 weight class) and Frank Stein (ranked 150 p4p, 24 weight class). Stein has chosen Red - Falling Sky as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
