Elsewhere, there were wins for the likes of Harvey from So Solid Crew and the YouTuber JMX. Relive the actiom below.

Gola is introduced to the crowd. "He knows with the weight difference this is a huge challenge for him ... but he doesn't care."

Seconds out, round one.

Great start to the fight as both men exchange leg kicks. Gola then lands a big left hook but it doesn't rock JMX. He's a big lad. And powerful. JMX then drops Gola with a hugeeee kick to the body before pinning him up against the fence.

JMX lands a lot of knees up against the cage. Gola is in a real spot of bother, but he's defending well. JMX lands a succession of knees to the body. And Gola is bleeding a lot from the shin.

JMX takes it to the floor. He has Gola pinned. JMX attempts to posture up but the klaxon saves Gola.

That cut to the shin is nasty. The blood is pouring.

Gola is in all sorts of trouble. The klaxon goes for the start of the second but the Pole is still bent double with ice on his back. He's getting an earful from the referee.

Here we go, seconds out, round two.

JMX narrowly misses with a huge spinning backfist. That would have finished the fight. JMX then lands a big body kick and Gola drops acrobatically, clutching his manhood.

That didn't look especially low to me ...?

I take it back, smack bang in the crown jewels that. Take your time Gola mate.

Can only hope Gola isn't planning on starting a family anytime soon. He is in all sorts of bother.
