Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Randy Giles (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Manny Pacquiao (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Giles comes to the cage accompanied by Rest In Peace. On his way into the cage it seems that Randy Giles has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Randy Giles seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Master Bison (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Lyoto Machida (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bison comes to the cage accompanied by The End. Machida is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Rev Theory - Hell Yeah . 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 Lyoto Machida was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
