PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Bishop Carver (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sune Vriden (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Carver might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Yung Jeezy/Jay Z - Go Crazy. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
