Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Doc Chillum (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Holden Gracie (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Chillum might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to High Hopes - Pink Floyd. Gracie is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Metallica Enter Sandman.
