Undercard bout

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Connor McManus (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Martin Louis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). McManus's entrance music is Jeff Danna - 'The Blood of Cú Chulainn'. A fine choice. Louis has chosen Stand up and Fight as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Paul Orndorf (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sylwester Karwowski (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Orndorf might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to "Bodies" by Drowning Pool. Karwowski has chosen Metallica - Enter Sandman as his entrance music. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
