PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Suzuki Pv (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mike Norris (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Pv might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Got to have faith. Norris has chosen Eye of the Tiger as his entrance music. 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.
