Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Bradock Norris (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and conchito gabaldon (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). gabaldon is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by tubthumping.

Undercard bout

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between John Gordon (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Brighton Johnston (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Johnston has chosen Billy Ray Cyrus - Achy Breaky Heart as his entrance music. Brighton Johnston struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 172.8lbs 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. 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.
