Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Charles Big Bear (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Davin Gunter (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Big Bear's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, put a donk on it - blackout crew. Gunter has chosen Black as his entrance music. 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 Davin Gunter was going to win. Let's see if he was right.

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Johnny Law (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Shiroi Neko (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Law's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Halo. Neko has chosen Ronald Jenkees - Messing With A Guitar Sound 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.
