PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Fu Li (ranked 1873 p4p, 3426 weight class) and Dubba Sub (ranked 228 p4p, 392 weight class). Sub comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Live It Up! 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.
