Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Optimus Prime (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mikael Samoth (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Prime might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Rich Boy - Boy Looka Here . Samoth has chosen Judas Priest - Painkiller as his entrance music. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
