PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Demo Man (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Angelo Smokeleaf (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Man might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to THE PRODIGY - voodoo people. 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.
