PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ricky Davis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Will Olson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Davis kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is High by Jimmie's Chicken Shack. Olson is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Bleed It Out- Linkin Park. Ricky Davis could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Will Olson's chin.
