PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Jimmy Johnson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Nate Holyfield (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Johnson might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to "The Fight Song" by Marilyn Manson. Rumors backstage are that the fighters have been paid to keep it standing but we know that would never happen in MMA!
