PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Steven Simpson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Elroy Jetson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Simpson might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Fire by The Roots. 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?
