PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between BJ Veb (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Rick Ruent (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Veb might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Damian Marley ft Nas - Road to Zion. 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.
