PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Veselui Udarnik (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Vernon Reed (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Reed is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Tiger style. Reed has a pretty significant injury - he really shouldn't be fighting right now but he's a warrior and he's here none the less! Vernon Reed has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
