Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Fedor Emelianenko (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Taylor Sphinx (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Emelianenko kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Pride Theme. Emelianenko is coming into this fight with a significant injury, which will no doubt have an effect on his cardio. Man, I cannot wait for this one!
