Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Itachi Uchiha (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Roxi Conlin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Uchiha might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TgARus5JFQY. Conlin has chosen R Kelly Im A Beast as his entrance music. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
