Main event

Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Eliza Marie II (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jesus Sanchez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Marie II might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to You´re the voice - John Farnham. Sanchez is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Slayer - Jesus Saves. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
