PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Hans Hermann Hoppe (ranked 262 p4p, 105 weight class) and Landon Priester (ranked 34 p4p, 12 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Hoppe might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Wind of Change. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
