PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ralph McGuire (ranked 141 p4p, 110 weight class) and Randy Randleman (ranked 23 p4p, 18 weight class). McGuire comes to the cage accompanied by Confederate Railroad - Daddy Never Was The Cadillac Kind. Randleman has chosen Bloodhound Gang - Bad Touch as his entrance music. 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?
