Man kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Penthouse. Holle has chosen Ektomorf - Show your fist as his entrance music. Richard Holle struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 172.3lbs 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. I can't wait for this one - let's get the fighter introductions out of the way and get this one started!

Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Roger Lin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Philip Dale (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lin kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Advance On v2. Dale is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Try A Little Tenderness. 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 Philip Dale was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
