Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Eric Murphy (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Chad Herbstreit (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Murphy might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Big pimpin Jay-Z. Herbstreit comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Herb Alpert - Street Life kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Chad Herbstreit struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 206.4lbs at the first attempt and had to take the additional two hours to make the official bout weight. Let's see how much it's taken out of him. Eric Murphy is staring across the cage at his opponent, tweaking his nipples... Tweaking his own nipples that is.

Undercard bout

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ross Maxwell (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Danilo Alves (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Maxwell's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Sonne - Rammstein. 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.
