Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Mac Danzig (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Denny Prokopos (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Danzig's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, the Smiths - Meat Is Murder. Prokopos has chosen Deep River Blues - Doc Watson as his entrance music. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Adam Carolla (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Michael Requina (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Carolla's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Gotta Get It On from Taboo 2. 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.
