Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Fedor Emelianenko (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Namor McKenzie (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Emelianenko might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Enea Vollare Mezzo. McKenzie has chosen Man From Atlantis as his entrance music. Fedor Emelianenko could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Namor McKenzie's chin.
