Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Liam Fitz (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Don Wilson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Wilson's choice of entrance music: The Last Dragon. Liam Fitz had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 171.7lbs, 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. Don Wilson has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Karl Hungus (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Holden Gracie (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hungus comes to the cage accompanied by Marilyn Manson - Sweet Dreams. Gracie has chosen Metallica Enter Sandman as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
