Don’t you mean tomorrow morning? Or maybe even late tonight depending on where you are in the states. I know it’s 6am tomorrow. Good thing it’s free cause it wouldn’t sell shit. I’d be surprised if more then 100,000 people tune in for it. Probably more like 20k. All bloggers
I hear Fedor is riding a unicycle around the isles between fights!
I want Fedor to lose or Choi to get an early retirement beating. Something special should happen.
Choi should call up Vincent K McMahon. He is a freak!
I want Fedor to get caught and lose so he can get back to real match ups.
It seriously would be the best thing in the whole world if Fedor somehow manages to lose.
And has anyone noticed that Hong Man Choi’s hand is as big as Fedor’s head.
On one of the prior stories about this match up on this site there was a link with some videos of Choi’s previous fights. One of them was against this tub of guts called Mighty Mo. Mo looked about half of Choi’s height and, I kid you not, looked like the only cardio he’d ever done was walking to the fridge for more fatty snacks. Mo punched Choi out after the first round. This thing is going to be some sort of freak show scam.
Mighty Mo is a beast that shouldn’t be doubted, man has ridiculous hands and heart. That’s just ignorant.
Huckaby–
I sure hope he has a strong heart. A guy that big needs one just to keep rolling. As far as the hands are concerned, he may have power, but you could time his punches with a calendar.
