Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Vladimir Koloff (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Hugo Oliva (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Koloff might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Lamb of God-"Walk with me in hell". Vladimir Koloff looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
