Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Bobby Benoit (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Lester Only (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Benoit might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to TNT - ACDC. Only is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Give it all - Rise Against. Well, I have no idea who's going to take this one!
