PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Nikola Dragoslav (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ilkka Mursu (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Dragoslav might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Disturbed - Indestructible. 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?
