PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Rick Alchin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and jason the warrior (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Alchin might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Mein Herz brennt. the warrior has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. 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.
