Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Russel Paulman (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bert Ernieson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Paulman comes to the cage accompanied by fight music . Ernieson has chosen Its Raining Men as his entrance music. Russel Paulman looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Machida The Coward (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Doug Marshall (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think The Coward might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to machida the best. Marshall has chosen Hell -- Disturbed as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
