Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Theo Clement (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Nathan Audet (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Clement's entrance music is Hussle In The House- by: Nipsey Hussle. A fine choice. Audet has chosen Black Eyed Peas - Pump it 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 heavyweight MMA rules bout between Lawrence Muggerud II (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dmitriy Bukharin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Bukharin has chosen "Terminator 2: Judgment Day" by Brad Fiedel as his entrance music.
