PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Bobby Santiago (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jeff Parker (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Santiago might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Kanye West - Stronger. Parker has chosen Bong Tokin Alcoholics-KottonmouthKings 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?
