PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Wolfgang Muller (ranked 433 p4p, 994 weight class) and Juha Sipila (ranked 60 p4p, 122 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Muller might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to In the Hall of the Mountain King. Wolfgang Muller has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
