Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Marcin Krol (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Klaus Krooker (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Krol might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Motorhead - King of kings. Krooker has chosen Kasparov - Keep Going as his entrance music. Marcin Krol could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Klaus Krooker's chin.
