Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mark Calaway (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Chris Cook (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Calaway might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to R.I.P.. Cook has chosen Cormega - built for this as his entrance music. 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.
