Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Sora Izanagi (ranked 291 p4p, 691 weight class) and Patrick Thomas (ranked 41 p4p, 103 weight class). Thomas has chosen LUNIZ -- I GOT 5 ON IT 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?

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Leroy Jinx (ranked 227 p4p, 494 weight class) and Baldomir Barbosa (ranked 37 p4p, 75 weight class). Jinx kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Shake Your Blood. Barbosa has chosen Unfaithful as his entrance music. 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.
