Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Brownie Anderson (ranked 442 p4p, 761 weight class) and Turner Crocop (ranked 61 p4p, 104 weight class). Anderson's entrance music is Iron man. A fine choice. Crocop has chosen Cro Cop as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. I don't know about you partner, but I'm pumped for this one!
