PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Cormac Whelan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Alex Column (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Whelan might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Bonny Portmore. Alex Column is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
