PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Kelvin Garnett (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Wendell Sailor (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Garnett might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Metallica - For Whom the Bell Tolls. Sailor has chosen Blackalicious - It's Going Down as his entrance music. I don't know about you partner, but I'm pumped for this one!
