Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between He Man (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Yoshi Sushi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Man's entrance music is He-Man theme song. A fine choice. 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?
