PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between More IsMore (ranked 362 p4p, 3325 weight class) and Barney Rumble (ranked 53 p4p, 359 weight class). Rumble comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Queens of the Stone Age - My God is the Sun kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Barney Rumble told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
