PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Spike Wicked (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ronald McDonald (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). McDonald has chosen I got a feeling - Black Eyed Peas as his entrance music. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
