PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Francisco Mir (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and ruslan agaev (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Mir might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Nas - Hate Me Now. 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.
