Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Clay Mercer (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Karl Michaels (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Mercer comes into the arena with Kid CuDi - Wylin Cuz I'm Young blaring out of the sound system. Michaels is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Gimme Shelter. 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?
