Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Charlie Luciano (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Del Thompson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Luciano comes into the arena with The Mechanic blaring out of the sound system. Thompson has chosen Gin and Juice by Snoop Dog 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 Del Thompson was going to win. Let's see if he was right.

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Jack Torrance (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bija Firserfest (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Torrance might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Shadow on the Sun by Audioslave. Both these guys have solid standup skills and neither is particularly fantastic on the ground, so let's hope for a nice standup war!
