PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Fabricio Werdum (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Magnus Holmstad (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Holmstad is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Nightmare. 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?
