Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Danny Drake (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Shane Carwin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Drake comes into the arena with ACDC black ice - spoilin for a fight blaring out of the sound system. Carwin is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Mama Said Knock You Out. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
