Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between William Dos Santos (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Patrick Mannelly (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Dos Santos's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Chemical Brothers - Leave Home. Dos Santos is coming into this fight with a significant injury, which will no doubt have an effect on his cardio. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Javier Pena (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Pavel Sherbo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Sherbo has chosen Boom Boom Out Go The Lights/ Pat Travers as his entrance music. Sherbo has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. 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.

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Trang Troc (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Max Kaz (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Troc might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Dr. Octagon - Real Raw. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
