PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Kian Kushiel (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tito Ortiz (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Kushiel might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Welsh National Anthem. Kian Kushiel looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
