Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Rin Itoshiki (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mariusz Zakrzewski (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class).

Undercard bout

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Wanderlei Silva (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Hulk Hogan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Silva comes to the cage accompanied by Sandstorm. Wanderlei Silva had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 186.7lbs, he had two hours to make the official fight weight. He made it but it will have taken a lot out of him to cut those extra few pounds. Hulk Hogan 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!
