Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Merrick Kane (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tallak Hrolf (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Kane might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Blood Sugar - Pendulum. Tallak Hrolf has the power to score a knockout today if he connects clean with Merrick Kane's chin.
