PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Michael Campion (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Robin Tuck (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Campion might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Ultimate-Denzel Curry. Robin Tuck will no doubt be trying to keep this one on the feet, where he has a distinct advantage.
