PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Roland Deschain (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Aldo Raine (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Deschain might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Giving In-- As made famous by Adema. Raine has chosen Slaughter - Billy Preston as his entrance music. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
