PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Tito Coleman (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Vladimir Mikhail (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Coleman might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Eminem - Mosh. Tito Coleman had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 186.2lbs, he had two hours to make the official fight weight. He made it but it will have taken a lot out of him to cut those extra few pounds. Vladimir Mikhail has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
