Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Cameron Bye (ranked 1439 p4p, 4229 weight class) and Jab Buckeye (ranked 222 p4p, 541 weight class). Buckeye has chosen Right above it lil Wayne as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Jab Buckeye was going to win. Let's see if he was right.

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Caspian Tennessen (ranked 2456 p4p, 1385 weight class) and Ralphie White (ranked 362 p4p, 206 weight class). Chooooooooon!
