Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Buster Kuntz (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dick Solomon (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class).

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Ed Gein (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Charles Martel (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Gein kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Dead Skin Mask. Martel has chosen Dreams - The Game as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Well, I have no idea who's going to take this one!
