Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Rasta Fary (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kid Kamakazi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Fary kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is El toro guapo. Kamakazi has chosen Cooking by the book as his entrance music. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jack Tripper (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Charlie McGregor (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Tripper kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Shout 2000. McGregor has chosen Bloc Party - Flux as his entrance music. Well, I have no idea who's going to take this one!
