PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Sepp Maier (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Julio Luis Cesar Moreira Dos Santos De Souza Silva (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Maier might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Apaga mas não bate. Dos Santos De Souza Silva comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Darude - Sandstorm kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
