PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Justin Burell (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Shawn Michaels (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Burell might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to When Worlds Collide--Powerman 5000. Michaels is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Sexy Boy. Justin Burell has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
