Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Pavlos Stathis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Biot Savart (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Stathis comes into the arena with Testament - Eyes of Wrath blaring out of the sound system. Savart comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Alice in Chains - Check My Brain kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Pavlos Stathis looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ican Pumbleski (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Gorgin Golzar (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Pumbleski might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to STAIND. Golzar has chosen Ey Iran (Remix) as his entrance music. Both these guys have solid standup skills and neither is particularly fantastic on the ground, so let's hope for a nice standup war!
