Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Bob Probert (ranked 1058 p4p, 1447 weight class) and J Gay G (ranked 98 p4p, 134 weight class). Probert kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is DNA. Gay G has chosen Down as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Bob Probert could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to J Gay G's chin.

Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Lito Alcala (ranked 438 p4p, 522 weight class) and Chu Ho Soon (ranked 33 p4p, 39 weight class). Alcala comes to the cage accompanied by MORTAL KOMBAT. Ho Soon has chosen Carl Orff - O Fortuna as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
