Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Nikolai Valuev (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Chill Romero (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Valuev kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Mala Dama - Kabat. Nikolai Valuev had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 266.2lbs, he had two hours to make the official fight weight. He made it but it will have taken a lot out of him to cut those extra few pounds. Chill Romero is staring across the cage at his opponent, tweaking his nipples.
