Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Tatsuya Aoki (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Chase Utley (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class).

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Clint Pereira (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Peter Knapp (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Pereira comes into the arena with K5 - Lovin' Feelin' blaring out of the sound system. Knapp is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Go to Sleep. On his way into the cage it seems that Clint Pereira has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Clint Pereira seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
