Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Clifton P (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and John Davis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). P comes into the arena with Who Next blaring out of the sound system. Davis has chosen Disturbed-Indestructible 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?
