Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Andre Hizen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kamil Tomcik (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Hizen might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Armin Van Buuren - Unforgivable. Kamil Tomcik told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Kojo Sarpong (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Aleksi Borga (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Sarpong kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genuis that is HellRazor. Borga is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by People In Planes - Last Man Standing. 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.
