PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Dragutin Bjelica (ranked 3910 p4p, 5594 weight class) and James Taylor (ranked 136 p4p, 97 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Bjelica might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Mick Gordon - The Only Thing They Fear Is You. Both these guys have solid standup skills and neither is particularly fantastic on the ground, so let's hope for a nice standup war!
