Undercard bout

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between John C Reilly (ranked 307 p4p, 302 weight class) and Silent Bob (ranked 44 p4p, 43 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Reilly might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to John C. Reilly Funniest Moments. On his way into the cage it seems that John C Reilly has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily John C Reilly seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?

Undercard bout

Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Gemellus Axius (ranked 24 p4p, 79 weight class) and Detkhunjon Sitsongrit (ranked 1 p4p, 4 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Axius might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Feed the Machine. 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 middleweight MMA rules bout between Jean-Claude Marceau (ranked 5 p4p, 29 weight class) and Gaultier Girard (ranked 1 p4p, 6 weight class). Marceau's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Feist - Tout Doucement. 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.
