Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Cerventes Bison (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Yimi Yuskevich (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Bison might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Beast by Tech N9ne. 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 Yimi Yuskevich was going to win. Let's see if he was right.

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Per Saukko (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jiu Claw (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Claw has chosen Orgineel! 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?
