Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Sendou Kitano (ranked 1445 p4p, 181 weight class) and Bo Teebs (ranked 2124 p4p, 255 weight class). Kitano kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Yoshida Brothers - Ibuki. Teebs has chosen Ghost - Square Hammer as his entrance music. 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 Troy Hooper (ranked 790 p4p, 108 weight class) and Jackson Boone (ranked 1012 p4p, 133 weight class). Boone is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Violeta. Jackson Boone struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 172.5lbs at the first attempt and had to take the additional two hours to make the official bout weight. Let's see how much it's taken out of him. There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
