Undercard bout

Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Harry Bosch (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Juan Jose Moreno Cuenca (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bosch comes to the cage accompanied by Run This Town. Moreno Cuenca is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Yo, el vaquilla. 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.

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jakob Cek (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and shawn michaels (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Cek's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Eye of the Tiger. michaels comes into a darkened arena with his song building. are u ready kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Jakob Cek had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 266.0lbs, 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. Jakob Cek has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
