PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Tonothan Kuhula (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Hallendro Filipovic (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Kuhula might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Native Drums from the South Pacific. Rumors backstage are that the fighters have been paid to keep it standing but we know that would never happen in MMA!
