PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Raphael Rivera (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and DJ Vasquel (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Rivera comes to the cage accompanied by Right Said FRED---I'm to Sexy. Vasquel has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. DJ Vasquel has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
