Undercard bout

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Michael Jones (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Rabban Harkonnen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Jones might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Professor Green - Monster . Harkonnen has chosen Johnny Cash - God's Gonna Cut You Down as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Michael Jones could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Rabban Harkonnen's chin.

Undercard bout

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jeffrey Lebowski (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Pekka Lipponen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Lebowski might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to VHB - Freedom Fighter. The crowd seem to be enjoying Lipponen's choice of entrance music: Rainbow - Man on the Silver Mountain. On his way into the cage it seems that Jeffrey Lebowski has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Jeffrey Lebowski seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
