Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Mikey Day (ranked 2144 p4p, 627 weight class) and Domonic Dilbrandt (ranked 126 p4p, 83 weight class). Dilbrandt comes into a darkened arena with his song building. The Champ is Here kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Domonic Dilbrandt was going to win. Let's see if he was right.

Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mawi Da Oxlade (ranked 289 p4p, 773 weight class) and Zeta Knox (ranked 12 p4p, 26 weight class). Knox has chosen Five Finger Death Punch | Bad Company as his entrance music. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Zeta Knox was going to win. Let's see if he was right.

Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
