Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Roger Freedmen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ivan Poddubny (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Freedmen might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Hero by Skillet. Poddubny has chosen Champion Of The Champions as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
