Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Iosef Vissarionovich Dzhugashvili (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and The Situation (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Dzhugashvili might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Gosudarstvenniy Gimn SSSR . Situation has chosen Worlds Greatest as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Iosef Vissarionovich Dzhugashvili could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to The Situation's chin.

Undercard bout

Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Big Hurt (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Hank Le Tank (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Le Tank has chosen The Trooper as his entrance music. 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 Hank Le Tank was going to win. Let's see if he was right.

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Bapit Pradchapet (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Miggery Sow (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Pradchapet kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Wanted Dead or Alive. Sow has chosen Master P 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.
