Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Star Fruit (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tori Black (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Fruit might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to If Everyone Cared. Black has chosen Teach me how to doggie 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 welterweight MMA rules bout between Deus Ex Machina (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Nigel McHughes (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Machina's entrance music is In Flames / Reroute To Remain. A fine choice. The crowd seem to be enjoying McHughes's choice of entrance music: Welcome To My Hood. 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.
