Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Tamdan McCrory (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jo Banza (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Tamdan McCrory had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 187.6lbs, 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. Over to our ring announcer for the fighter introductions!

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Dante Lucien (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ryan Sanderson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Lucien might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Kiss - All Hell's Breaking Loose. Sanderson has chosen Pantera - This Love as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
