PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Bubba Wallace (ranked 407 p4p, 1135 weight class) and William Riker (ranked 62 p4p, 145 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Wallace might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Hound Dog. 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?
