Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Sigge Furst (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jaw Breaker (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Breaker has a pretty significant injury - he really shouldn't be fighting right now but he's a warrior and he's here none the less! Sigge Furst could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Jaw Breaker's chin.
