Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Jason Crayzle (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Marco Ruas (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class).

There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.

Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Chris Cook (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Liha Pulla (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Cook kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Cormega - built for this. Pulla has chosen Arvo P�rt - De Profundis as his entrance music. This should be a great matchup!
