Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jens Hansen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jay Roc Jr (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Hansen might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Eminem: I'm not afraid . Roc Jr is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Reign Supreme - Persevere And Overcome. Jay Roc Jr told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mikko Suvanto (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jean Pierre Skogsbaer (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Skogsbaer has chosen Rough boy - ZZ Top as his entrance music. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Jean Pierre Skogsbaer was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
