PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Sweyn Forkbeard (ranked 3788 p4p, 411 weight class) and Simbo Klice (ranked 3543 p4p, 391 weight class). Klice has chosen THE D.O.C. - it's funky enough as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Simbo Klice is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
