Undercard bout

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Wahoo McDaniel (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Boxing Comte (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think McDaniel might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to War Dance. Comte is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Laser life by Blood Brothers. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
