PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Hulk Hogan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ira Stein (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Hogan might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Real American. Rumors backstage are that the fighters have been paid to keep it standing but we know that would never happen in MMA!
