Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Roland Deschain (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dolph Fredriksson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon!

Dolph Fredriksson told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Pete Patterson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Pyyno Janis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Patterson might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to "I'm Too Sexy". Janis has chosen Rubber Johnny 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.
