Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Joe Warren (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Clive Gant (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Warren comes to the cage accompanied by Underdog by Kasabian. On his way into the cage it seems that Joe Warren has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Joe Warren seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Randy Couture (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Edgar Robinson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Robinson has chosen Drowning Pool - Bodies as his entrance music. Randy Couture had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 207.2lbs, 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. The crowd giving both fighters a great reception on their way into the arena. That's good to see.
