Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between cro copout (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Philip Dale (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). copout kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is you throw knee, i go home. The crowd seem to be enjoying Dale's choice of entrance music: Try A Little Tenderness. cro copout has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
