PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jimmy Buffet (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Fedor Emelianenko (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Buffet might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Margaritaville. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
