Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Bob Stroker (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Yourn Rotterdam Jr (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Stroker kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Deathlike Silence - Who's Gonna Bury Me. Rotterdam Jr has chosen Lil Wayne - Right Above It feat. Drake as his entrance music. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Paul Irwin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Nyffe Pehmytkudos (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Irwin comes to the cage accompanied by AC/DC - T.N.T. Pehmytkudos comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Culture Club - Do You Really Want To Hurt Me kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
