Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Curt Hennig (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Stefol Czarnecki (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class).

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Jackson Savage (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Klaus Andersen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Savage comes to the cage accompanied by Bon Jovi - It's my life. 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 Klaus Andersen was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
