Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Steve Job (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Aiolia de Leao (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Job might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to I'm On a Mac. Aiolia de Leao has the power to score a knockout today if he connects clean with Steve Job's chin.

Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Mark Steiner (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jeager The Great (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Steiner's entrance music is Atreyu- Doomsday. A fine choice. The Great has chosen Du Hast By Rammstein 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 Jeager The Great was going to win. Let's see if he was right.

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Bas Belfort (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Quinton Jackson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Belfort kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Du Hast. Jackson has chosen Rampage as his entrance music. Bas Belfort has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
