PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jon Miocic (ranked 2621 p4p, 2172 weight class) and Mike Maron (ranked 278 p4p, 237 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Miocic might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to God Gave Me Style - 50 Cent. Mike Maron told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
