PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Michael Washington (ranked 3651 p4p, 4084 weight class) and Ki Dausz (ranked 413 p4p, 435 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Washington might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Rising. Dausz has chosen Trio Libel's : Gadisku as his entrance music. Ki Dausz will no doubt be trying to keep this one on the feet, where he has a distinct advantage.
