Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Charlie Sheen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Joaquim Maria (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Sheen's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Winning! - Charlie Sheen. Maria has chosen Kronos - Bloodtower as his entrance music. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
