Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Arjan Bhullar (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sixten Sason (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Bhullar might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Lords of the Underground - Chief Rocka. The crowd seem to be enjoying Sason 's choice of entrance music: Parkway Drive - Wild Eyes. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
