PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Joe Ball (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Johnny Guapo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Ball might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Hammer Smashed Face. Joe Ball has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
