Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Axel Van Dam (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Joey Zizzmen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class).

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Nick Morris (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dominick Luc Boivers (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Luc Boivers has chosen The Champ is Here by Lupe Fiasco (Instumental) as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
