PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between John Holliday (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and M J Shain (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Holliday might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Break Stuff. Shain has chosen Thunderstruck as his entrance music. M J Shain has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
