PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Mohammed Hassan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kalib Whealen (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Hassan might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to My Reign. Whealen has chosen Here Comes The Money as his entrance music. Kalib Whealen is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
