Undercard bout

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Bubba Wallace (ranked 445 p4p, 865 weight class) and Crusty Bigg (ranked 61 p4p, 106 weight class). Bigg has chosen Rocky Top 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?

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Manco Unknown (ranked 339 p4p, 199 weight class) and Winston Todd (ranked 47 p4p, 28 weight class). Unknown comes to the cage accompanied by Ennio Morricone. Todd is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Piano Man. On his way into the cage it seems that Manco Unknown has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Manco Unknown seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
