Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Yin Mao (ranked 287 p4p, 521 weight class) and Detritus Rubble (ranked 23 p4p, 45 weight class). Mao's entrance music is HonestKey- Pass.

Detritus Rubble 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 bantamweight MMA rules bout between Matt Seal (ranked 532 p4p, 177 weight class) and Zigor Azarola (ranked 47 p4p, 16 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Azarola's choice of entrance music: Million Shattered Swords by Witchrot. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
