Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Duke Toney (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jon Pall Sigmarsson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Toney might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Pulp Fiction theme song. Sigmarsson comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Du Hast, Rammstein kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Duke Toney has the edge in experience - let's see if he can make that count tonight.
