PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Juninho Palaver (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Luis Gonzaga (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Gonzaga has chosen DMX as his entrance music. Palaver has a slight injury, which hopefully won't affect the fight too much. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
