Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Buzzkill McGee (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Randy Moss (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think McGee might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Boss of all Bosses - Slim Thug. Moss has chosen Foo Fighters - Best of You as his entrance music. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
