PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Scotty McGruber (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Arturo Caldeira (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think McGruber might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Chevelle - Shameful Metaphors. Caldeira is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: billionaire. Scotty McGruber could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Arturo Caldeira's chin.
