Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Gwan Di (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Guan Yu (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Di might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Legend of Gwan Di. Yu has chosen Wasteland as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. The key to victory for Gwan Di has got to be keeping the fight on the feet.
