Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Lexington Snape (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Seamus Farrelly (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Snape's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, DJ Tiësto - Carmina Burana: Remixed. Farrelly is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: The man that you FEAR . 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 Seamus Farrelly was going to win. Let's see if he was right.

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Cameron Sloan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Artur Levchenko (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Levchenko is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Zelenoglazoe Taksi. On his way into the cage it seems that Cameron Sloan has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Cameron Sloan seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
