Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Herbert Kreischer (ranked 160 p4p, 232 weight class) and Beau Canada (ranked 7 p4p, 10 weight class). Kreischer comes into the arena with Bert Learns To Hip-Hop Dance To Post Malone blaring out of the sound system. 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?
