PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Isaac Wankerl (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Lil Mac (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Wankerl might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Voodoo Chile by Jimi Hendrix. Lil Mac told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
