Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mike Tyson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Timur Lenk (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Tyson kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is bad to the bone. 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?
