"King" Mo was more like King NO, as he wasn't able to get a strong offensive push going for any meaningful period of time. He takes good damage, so kudos there. More offense, perhaps? Though I don't recall that being an issue in the past. Who the damn knows. Do you know? No? Then shut up! ...Jerk.

Little Nog went all noggy on the King and just nogged the floor with him. The mat too, once they entered the cage. "King" Mo was more like King NO, as he wasn't able to get a strong offensive push going for any meaningful period of time. He takes good damage, so kudos there. More offense, perhaps? Though I don't recall that being an issue in the past. Who the damn knows. Do you know? No? Then shut up! ...Jerk.
