PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ric Flair (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jim Dope (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Flair might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Slayer - Reign In Blood. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
