Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Jeff Anderson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Frank Pembelton (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Anderson's entrance music is 'Trapped Under Ice' by Metallica. A fine choice. Pembelton is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Hail Mary by Tupac. 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 Anthony Ellis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Alpha Male (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Ellis might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Avril Lavigne - Hot. Male comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Rooster kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! There are an array of beautiful celebrities at ringside tonight! I wonder if any of them paid for their tickets.
