Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Luis Alberto Perez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Lee Wilson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class).

Luis Alberto Perez has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?

Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Harold Howard (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ghengis Congo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Howard comes to the cage accompanied by Eddie Money - Take me home tonight. Congo is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Ghostface - After the Smoke is Clear. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Ghengis Congo was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
