Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Carter Johnson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Zapp Brannigan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Johnson comes into the arena with Enter Sandman by Metallica blaring out of the sound system. Brannigan has chosen Jackyl -- The Lumberjack as his entrance music. 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.
