Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Frank Paul (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Charlie Parsons (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Parsons has chosen Call Me The Breeze 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.

Horrible takedown by Goldstein or perhaps it was just good defense by Babbage which made him look bad.
Babbage drives through and clinches with Goldstein against the cage.
Babbage escapes the clinch and we're back to striking.
Babbage keeps the fight on the outside.
Goldstein is a painfully thin specimen of a man. You do wonder whether a good body kick would snap him clean in two.
Babbage drops Goldstein with a left and a right! Oh, Goldstein is hurt - Babbage dives into side control looking to finish!
Goldstein is rocked!
It looks like Sol Goldstein has been cut.
Babbage scores with a big shot from side control... and another... and another! Oh Goldstein is done here - save him referee! More strikes land and eventually the ref does step in and Babbage can finally stop beating on his defenseless opponent!
