Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Carv Great (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Brycen Gionet (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Gionet comes into a darkened arena with his song building. "Mosh" by Eminem kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! 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.

Undercard bout

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Darren Willington (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and victor king (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Darren Willington had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 266.7lbs, he had two hours to make the official fight weight. He made it but it will have taken a lot out of him to cut those extra few pounds. The key to victory for Darren Willington has got to be keeping the fight on the feet.
