PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Yoruba Ahimbe (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Herman Pacquiao (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Ahimbe might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to "Hit em Up" Tupac. Herman Pacquiao has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
