Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Kickin Rad (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Charlie Sheen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Rad comes to the cage accompanied by Kids Of The K-Hole. Sheen is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Winning! - Charlie Sheen. 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.
