Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Dexter Redshaw (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Oishi Yoshio (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Redshaw comes to the cage accompanied by Stevie Ray Vaughan - Little Wing. Yoshio has chosen "Stronger" by Kanye West 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 Jake Koers (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kyle Mortis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class).
