Undercard bout

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Kjell Dillon (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ashy Larry (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Dillon might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Pipes & Drums 1st Battalion Scots Guards. Larry is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Where I'm From, Marcy Son. Kjell Dillon could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Ashy Larry's chin.

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Tommy MacKenzie (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dexter Morgan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think MacKenzie might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Kettel - My Dogan . Morgan is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Johnny Cash - Hurt. Dexter Morgan told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
