Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ana Conda (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Brash Tootin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Conda's entrance music is Rooster. A fine choice. Tootin comes into a darkened arena with his song building. I wanna chill kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! 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?
