PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Tomi Ekbom (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Andrew Barnes (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Ekbom might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Varrella virran. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
