Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between DeShawn West (ranked 217 p4p, 453 weight class) and Wallace Cobb (ranked 3 p4p, 10 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think West might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Can’t Be Touched - Roy Jones Jr. Cobb has chosen Where's Wallace? as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Wallace Cobb is staring across the cage at his opponent, tweaking his nipples.
