Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Jan David (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Inigo Montoya (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). David kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Pity the Man With the Fast Right Hand. Montoya has chosen Reptile Theme by Skrillex as his entrance music. Both fighters will be looking to make this an exciting fight for the fans, I'm sure!

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Chris Webster (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Julio Salcedo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Webster's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Guns N' Roses - Dead Horse. Salcedo has chosen Muse - Muscle Museum as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Chris Webster has a significant reach advantage - let's see if he can make it count.
