Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Amistair Corollakoski (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mike Jones (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Amistair Corollakoski had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 186.3lbs, he had two hours to make the official fight weight. He made it but it will have taken a lot out of him to cut those extra few pounds. Amistair Corollakoski has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?

Co-main event

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Luke Becker (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Denny Crane (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Crane has chosen TOUCHED as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Luke Becker had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 206.4lbs, he had two hours to make the official fight weight. He made it but it will have taken a lot out of him to cut those extra few pounds. Denny Crane is staring across the cage at his opponent, tweaking his nipples.
