PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Alexei Sokolov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dieter Schaafs (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Sokolov might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to I Don't Get Tired - Kevin Gates. Dieter Schaafs is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
