PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Jake Ryan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Joe Garelli (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Ryan might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Girlfriend. Garelli has chosen Patriarch on a Vespa as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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?
