PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jorge Cruz Jr (ranked 261 p4p, 386 weight class) and Ulysses Blazkov (ranked 47 p4p, 61 weight class). Blazkov has chosen Me And The Devil as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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?
