PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Funaki Fujiwara (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Frank Drebin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Fujiwara might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to T.N.T. by Tonedeff. Frank Drebin is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
