Main event

Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Tamias Poochyena (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Billy Danze (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Poochyena comes to the cage accompanied by This Life - Curtis Stigers & The Forest Rangers. Danze is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Handle ur Bizness by the Mash Out Possee. 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.
