Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Rakhmetov Chernyshevsky (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Werkka Easterlund (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chernyshevsky kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is The Sisters of Mercy -- Lucretia. The crowd seem to be enjoying Easterlund's choice of entrance music: Harbinger of Sorrow. This should be fireworks!

Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Timmey The Gangster (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Artur Banas (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Banas has chosen Sail 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 Artur Banas was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
