PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Ric Flores (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Nils Holgersson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Flores might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Napalm & Erruption- In San Francisco. Holgersson has chosen Theme as his entrance music. Ric Flores could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Nils Holgersson's chin.
