PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Raphael De Los Demonios (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Nikola Djukic (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think De Los Demonios might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Enter Sandman by Metallica. Djukic has chosen Juice - Sam as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Nikola Djukic has the power to score a knockout today if he connects clean with Raphael De Los Demonios's chin.
