PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Xander Boudewijn (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bragi Olafsson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Boudewijn might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Streets - Blinded by the Lights. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
