Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Harry Mangreg (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Rashid Magomedov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Mangreg comes into the arena with Livin' on a Prayer blaring out of the sound system. Magomedov has chosen Chris Brown - See You Again Feat. Tyga & Wiz Khalifa 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.

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Dick Army (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Attila Skif (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Army kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Vagina Coastguard. 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 Attila Skif was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
