Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Patrick Robinson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tyson Belfort (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Robinson kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Kid Rock - American Badass. Belfort has chosen The Architect as his entrance music. 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.

Undercard bout

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Patrick O Flattery (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Magnus Edwinsson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Edwinsson has chosen M by Ayumi Hamasaki as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Patrick O Flattery looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
