Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Elmo Salty (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and David McLain (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Salty comes to the cage accompanied by Gonna Fly Now. 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?
