PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ralph Vincent Gapuz (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Chad Sloan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Gapuz is coming into this fight with a significant injury, which will no doubt have an effect on his cardio. Ralph Vincent Gapuz looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
