PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Johnny Flanagan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kenrick Nikil (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Flanagan might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Saigon - Whispers. Nikil is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Wait and Bleed by Slipknot. This should be a great matchup!
