Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ladislav Hemsky (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dirk Harvath (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hemsky kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Onward to Victory. 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 Dirk Harvath was going to win. Let's see if he was right.

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Sam Hall (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Peter Tosh (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon!
