PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Marlo Stanfield (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kazuo Hashimoto (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Stanfield might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Call To Greatness. 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?
