PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between James Fullington (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Thor Blackwood (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Fullington might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Enter Sandman. Both these guys have solid standup skills and neither is particularly fantastic on the ground, so let's hope for a nice standup war!
