PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Danny Ochoa (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Hamid Zaferani (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Ochoa might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Ice Cube - I Rep That West. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
