PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Lloyd Strife (ranked 25227 p4p, 0 weight class) and Cliff Studebaker (ranked 3429 p4p, 417 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Strife might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Warren G - Regulate (Feat. Nate Dogg). Strife has a slight injury, which hopefully won't affect the fight too much. This should be a great matchup!
