Carnage 73: Temple of Doom PBP Commentary |
Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Steve McGarrett (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and John Davidson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think McGarrett might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to the theme from Hawaii 5-0. 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.
