PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Dis Tion (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Abe Reles (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Tion might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Prodigy 'Omen' . Reles has chosen Bone Thugs N Harmony - Mo' Murda 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?
