Reed comes to the cage accompanied by Nas - Hate me now. Denari has chosen Judas Priest's Rapid Fire as his entrance music. 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?

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Earl Sanders (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kenny Smith (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Sanders's entrance music is LL Cool J. A fine choice. Earl Sanders had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 157.9lbs, he had two hours to make the official fight weight. He made it but it will have taken a lot out of him to cut those extra few pounds. This should be a great matchup!
