Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Gorgin Golzar (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Matto Monni (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Golzar might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Ey Iran (Remix). Monni has chosen AC/DC - Shoot to thrill as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Rob Green (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tyrone Biggums (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Biggums comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Siegreicher Marsch - Amon Amarth kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! 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.
