PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Hayn Diesel (ranked 3328 p4p, 1945 weight class) and Fidelity Castro (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Diesel might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Outerspass - Der Pump. 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?
