PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between David Cross (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mega Fredriksson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Cross might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The New Black by Every Time I Die. Fredriksson is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by DMX - Megatron Gon' Give It To Ya. David Cross has the edge in experience - let's see if he can make that count tonight.
