PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Eric Osiris (ranked 777 p4p, 983 weight class) and Diego Rios (ranked 86 p4p, 114 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Osiris might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Erbody But Me by Tech N9ne. Rumors backstage are that the fighters have been paid to keep it standing but we know that would never happen in MMA!
