Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Seth Anson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Stanley Goodspeed (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Anson might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to ''South of Heaven'' by The Electric Hellfire Club. Seth Anson could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Stanley Goodspeed's chin.
