Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Brock Rock (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Benjamin Dodd (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Dodd has chosen Fight Music as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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 Benjamin Dodd was going to win. Let's see if he was right.

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jonny Subz (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Rich Corleone (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Subz comes to the cage accompanied by Speak - Stop The War. Corleone has chosen White Stripes - Little Room as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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?
