Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Antonio Salieri (ranked 1047 p4p, 124 weight class) and Pit Canthropus Jr (ranked 1643 p4p, 194 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Salieri might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to DMX - Ain’t No Sunshine. Canthropus Jr has chosen Austin Powers - Daddy Wasn't There as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both fighters look pumped up here. Let's hope this is a good fight!

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Matheo Rojas (ranked 802 p4p, 114 weight class) and Jonas Justesen (ranked 1846 p4p, 240 weight class). Rojas's entrance music is Rodrigo Amarante - Tuyo (Narcos Theme Song) . A fine choice. Jonas Justesen struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 171.7lbs at the first attempt and had to take the additional two hours to make the official bout weight. Let's see how much it's taken out of him. Jonas Justesen 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 super heavyweight MMA rules bout between John Smith (ranked 262 p4p, 13 weight class) and Kenrick Nikil Jr (ranked 966 p4p, 41 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Smith might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Song 2. Nikil Jr is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Dark Horse - Andrew Baena. Kenrick Nikil Jr has the power to score a knockout today if he connects clean with John Smith's chin.
