PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Hulk Hogin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Philip Dale (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hogin kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is real american. Dale has chosen Try A Little Tenderness as his entrance music. Philip Dale 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!
