PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Konrad Marcinkiewicz (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sambo Robinson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Robinson has chosen DJ Dee Kline - I don't smoke da reefa as his entrance music. 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?
