Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Ramdhani Lestalahu (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sinister Mayhem (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ramdhani Lestalahu had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 186.1lbs, 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. Ramdhani Lestalahu has the edge in experience - let's see if he can make that count tonight.

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Kain Magnus (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kenta Yuudai (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Magnus might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Scream Aim Fire!. Yuudai has chosen Know your Enemy - Yoko Kanno as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Kenta Yuudai has the power to score a knockout today if he connects clean with Kain Magnus's chin.
