Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mahatma Gandhi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bob Lawler (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Gandhi kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Hungry Like The Wolf. 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 Bob Lawler was going to win. Let's see if he was right.

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Yuudai Ryuu (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jack Hammer (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ryuu comes to the cage accompanied by HBO Boxing 24/7 Original Theme. Hammer has chosen Nine Inch Nails - Wish 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.
