CFC 104: Deagle vs Guerrero PBP Commentary |
Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Alcides Salonica (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Feng Wei (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Salonica might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to "Weapons of Mad Distortion" by The Crystal Method. Wei has chosen Tekken DR - Snow Castle as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both these guys have solid standup skills and neither is particularly fantastic on the ground, so let's hope for a nice standup war!
