Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Tony Soprano (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Thor Silva (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Soprano comes to the cage accompanied by Got Yourself a Gun . Silva has chosen Vlad the Impaler as his entrance music. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Thor Silva was going to win. Let's see if he was right.

Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Primo Carnera (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mark Calaway (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Carnera comes to the cage accompanied by DMX - one more road to cross. Calaway is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: R.I.P.. 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.
