Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Frankie Frasier (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dexter Wellington (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Frasier kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Police And Thieves - Junior Murvin. 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 light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ivan Arlovski (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Nori Borec (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Arlovski might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Slayer - Hell Awaits. Borec has chosen Carl orff - o fortuna as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Rumors backstage are that the fighters have been paid to keep it standing but we know that would never happen in MMA!

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Randy Moss (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Remy Valentine (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Valentine's choice of entrance music: Pantera-Throes of Rejection. On his way into the cage it seems that Randy Moss has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Randy Moss seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
