PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Julian Wallace (ranked 4211 p4p, 24036 weight class) and Billy Turner (ranked 196 p4p, 268 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Wallace might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Smile - Jimmy Durante. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the ring.
