Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Big Daddy Johnson (ranked 3402 p4p, 122 weight class) and Shaka Zulu (ranked 2404 p4p, 94 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Johnson might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to DMX- X Gon' Give it to Ya. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
