Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Shawn Michaels (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Josh Watson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Michaels might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Sexy Boy. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Josh Watson was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
