Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between NumbaOne Stunna (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Fedor Emelianenko (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Stunna's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Bring The Pain. The crowd seem to be enjoying Emelianenko's choice of entrance music: Enea Vollare Mezzo. 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 heavyweight MMA rules bout between Kane Williams (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Maverick Smokeleaf (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Williams might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Celebration by Kool and the Gang. Smokeleaf comes into a darkened arena with his song building. LMFAO - Sexy and I Know It kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
