PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Chipped Shoulder (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Nelson Mandela (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Shoulder might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Call On Me - Eric Pyrdz. Mandela comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Free Nelson Mandela kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
