Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Mick Mutters (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Wolfram Stelzer (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Mutters might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Hand of Doom. Stelzer has chosen Satyricon - K.I.N.G. as his entrance music. Both fighters will be looking to make this an exciting fight for the fans, I'm sure!

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Roger Wabbit (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Michal Tarnowski (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Tarnowski has chosen Hemp Gru - Sami swoi as his entrance music. 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 Michal Tarnowski was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
