Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Jarmo Laukkanen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Itor Lamope (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Laukkanen kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is The Mutilation of Christ. Lamope has chosen Bulletproof as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?

Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Jesus Barreda (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mal Reynolds (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Barreda might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Rockstar. Reynolds has chosen Can't take the sky from me as his entrance music. 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.
