Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Tyler Davies (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Joe Stevenson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Stevenson comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Lose Yourself kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! 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 Joe Stevenson was going to win. Let's see if he was right.

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Gordon Johnson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Evan Reis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Reis comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Duality kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Johnson has a slight injury, which hopefully won't affect the fight too much. 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.
