Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Danny Brown (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sami Sykloni (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Brown might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Slum Village - Look At Yo Face. Sykloni is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: David Arkenstone - Carrickfergus. Sami Sykloni has the eye of the tiger tonight.
