PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Roman Ship (ranked 574 p4p, 639 weight class) and Biscuit Oliva (ranked 42 p4p, 48 weight class). Oliva comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Vo Williams - Primal (ft. Vyceroy) kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
