PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ghengis Congo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Drew Mcnichol (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Congo might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to After the Smoke is Clear. Mcnichol has chosen AC/DC - Back in Black as his entrance music. Drew Mcnichol has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
