PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Antonio Nogueira (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dejerion Berez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Nogueira might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Ether. Rumors backstage are that the fighters have been paid to keep it standing but we know that would never happen in MMA!
