PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between PJ Walker (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Rikki Way (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Walker's entrance music is underground rapper. A fine choice. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
