Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Flavius Odoacer (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jason Shono (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon!

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Jens Pedersen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dominick De Struicao (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon!

On his way into the cage it seems that Jens Pedersen has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Jens Pedersen seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Loopin Louie (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sinbad Sailor (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Sailor has chosen Sailing on the Seven Seas as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
