Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Derrick Bradley (ranked 1999 p4p, 4007 weight class) and Ted Meredith (ranked 292 p4p, 515 weight class). Bradley kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Sudbury Saturday Night. Meredith has chosen Skinny Boys - Skinny (They Can't Get Enough) as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Derrick Bradley has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?

I think Shalashaska has won this one but let's see whether the judges agree with me. Over to the ring announcer for the scorecards.

Ladies and gentlemen, after 5 rounds of action, we go to the scorecards for a decision.
Judge Chris Edwards scores the fight 47:48
Judge Colin Fotheringham scores the fight 47:48
Judge Sam Margolis scores the fight 48:48

In favor of your winner, by majority decision... Adam Shalashaska!

Adam Shalashaska is the new welterweight champion!
Post fight, Adam Shalashaska took to the microphone: 'You're pretty good.'.
