Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Huima Huima (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Vlad BrokkenHauser (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Huima might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Holy Diver. Vlad BrokkenHauser has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?

Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Gregori Vladivostok (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jus Money (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Vladivostok might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Goodbye Sober Day - Mr Bungle. Money has chosen Who Let The Dogs Out as his entrance music. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
