Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Charlie McGregor (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Alex Rua (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). McGregor's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Bloc Party - Flux. Rua has a pretty significant injury - he really shouldn't be fighting right now but he's a warrior and he's here none the less! Charlie McGregor has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?

Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Rolen Spliffs (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Simo Supermies (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Spliffs might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Ice Cube - Smoke Some Weed. Supermies is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by D12 - Fight Music. Simo Supermies has the power to score a knockout today if he connects clean with Rolen Spliffs's chin.
