PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Eddie McDermott (ranked 2380 p4p, 1813 weight class) and Alexus Argento (ranked 258 p4p, 191 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think McDermott might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to I'm Shipping up to Boston. Argento has chosen For Heavy Metal we will die! as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Alexus Argento has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
