PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Thiago Smith (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Hank Rockford (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Smith might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Mobb Deep - Amerikaz Nightmare. Rockford has chosen Click Click Boom as his entrance music. Thiago Smith could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Hank Rockford's chin.
