Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Sjaak de West (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Zangief Ostanbeczech (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). de West comes into the arena with Can i play with madness (Iron Maiden) blaring out of the sound system. Sjaak de West looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
