PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Longfellow Deeds (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Devan Dubnyk (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Deeds might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Evils Deeds. 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.
