PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Auron Almasy (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Hernando Cortez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Almasy might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Ram Jam - Black Betty. 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?
