PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Murdo Douglass (ranked 3929 p4p, 386 weight class) and Jean Claude Van Damme (ranked 5573 p4p, 527 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Douglass might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Union Underground - Across The Nation. Van Damme has chosen Stormtroopers march BY-MORBID ANGEL as his entrance music. Jean Claude Van Damme is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
