Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Joe Toots (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Prince Nana (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Toots might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Monster Mash. Nana has chosen Diamonds From Sierra Leone as his entrance music. Prince Nana has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
