Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Lombardo Limba (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Frank Pembelton (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon!

Well, I have no idea who's going to take this one!

Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Vad Velara (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Luisito Luzara (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Luzara is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Liwanag - By Callalily. 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 Luisito Luzara was going to win. Let's see if he was right.

Undercard bout

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Sinuhe Egyptian (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tor Nansen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Egyptian's entrance music is Egyptian Entrance Song. A fine choice. Nansen has chosen The Prodigy - Thunder 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?
