PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Salvador Saballe (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Monty Python (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Saballe might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to In My City. 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.
