PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Peter Smith (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Uriel Amok (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Smith comes to the cage accompanied by Grand Magus - Hammer of the North. Amok has chosen Devils as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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?
