PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Uche Mohammed (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Perseus Poseidon (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Mohammed might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to AC/DC - Dog Eat Dog. Poseidon has chosen let the bodies hit the floor as his entrance music. Perseus Poseidon will no doubt be trying to keep this one on the feet, where he has a distinct advantage.
