Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between MK Ultra (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jamie Carlson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon!

Will he look to stand and bang today?

Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Payao Kamsing (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Andrei Zhelyabov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Kamsing comes to the cage accompanied by Dead Can Dance - Toward the Within. Zhelyabov has chosen Гимн СССР as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. On his way into the cage it seems that Payao Kamsing has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Payao Kamsing seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
