PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Big McGee (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Fidalgo Brokador (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think McGee might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Hand that Feeds. 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?
