PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Dobroslav Poddubny (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Pekka Puukko (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Poddubny might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Subways - Rock & Roll Queen. Pekka Puukko will no doubt be trying to keep this one on the feet, where he has a distinct advantage.
