Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Joost Van De Wolf Keizer (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Alistair Overeem (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Van De Wolf Keizer kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is MASTODON - BLOOD AND THUNDER. Overeem has chosen UFC - Face the Pain as his entrance music. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Yance Sackett (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Billy Shears (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Sackett comes to the cage accompanied by Vato. Shears has chosen Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band 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.
