Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Rex Buster (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Captain Fantastic (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Fantastic comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Rex Buster looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
