Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Flo Wer (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Willie Manuawillie (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Wer might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to My Sweet Lord by George Harrison. Manuawillie has chosen Lil Wayne Feat. Eminem - Drop The World! as his entrance music. Willie Manuawillie struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 171.1lbs 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. Flo Wer could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Willie Manuawillie's chin.

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Kaarlo Vihtala (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Gunnar Nelson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class).
