Undercard bout

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Fernando Poe Jr (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Austin Pulogrando (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Fernando Poe Jr had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 186.4lbs, he had two hours to make the official fight weight. He made it but it will have taken a lot out of him to cut those extra few pounds. Fernando Poe Jr has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Marcus Jones (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Steve Job (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Jones kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Collie Buddz - Come Around. Job has chosen I'm On a Mac as his entrance music. Steve Job will no doubt be trying to keep this one on the feet, where he has a distinct advantage.

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Connor Wellington (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kuttke Jurabaga (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Wellington's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Radiohead - Reckoner. 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.
