PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Clay Wilkinson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Johnny Thunders (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Wilkinson might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Overkill. Thunders comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Ain't That A Kick In The Head by Dean Martin kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Clay Wilkinson has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
