PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Zartan Zatarain (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Pablo Santos (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Zatarain might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Nine Inch Nails - Hurt. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
