PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Carson Holliday (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Chris Santi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Holliday might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Andreas Johnson - Glorious. Carson Holliday could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Chris Santi's chin.
