PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jacob Reeves (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Avtomat Kalashnikov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Reeves might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Set to Fail - Lamb of God. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
