Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Josh Coshak (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and George Lewis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class).

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Danny Seagram (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Edwin Jordan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Seagram's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Rise Against / Prayer Of The Refugee. Jordan has chosen The Champ Is Here as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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?
