Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between William Monteiro (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Rousimar Palhares (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Palhares has chosen arrival to earth as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that William Monteiro has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily William Monteiro seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Ice Man (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jorge Dennis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Man's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Lights Out. Dennis has chosen Bark at the moon 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.

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Kenny Gomi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ultimate Hellbane (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Gomi might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Slaap lekker!. The crowd seem to be enjoying Hellbane's choice of entrance music: Barkley, Shut Up And Jam: Gaiden theme. Both fighters will be looking to make this an exciting fight for the fans, I'm sure!
