Undercard bout

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Jerry Orbach (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kevin Haskins (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Both these fighters had to take extra time to make weight as they missed the initial 155lb limit. Jerry Orbach came in at 157.1 and Kevin Haskins came in at 156.7 but after the extra two hours, both guys managed to get within the one pound allowance. No doubt it will have affected them physically though, so let's see if that has an impact on the fight. I don't know about you partner, but I'm pumped for this one!

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Sizzle Snappe (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dennis Bergkamp (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Snappe's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, The Power. Bergkamp has chosen The Dennis Bergkamp Song as his entrance music. Dennis Bergkamp struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 171.0lbs 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. Dennis Bergkamp will no doubt be trying to keep this one on the feet, where he has a distinct advantage.
