PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Larry Carnitine (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Saulo Brandao (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Carnitine might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Doro Pesch and Udo Dirkschneider covering Breaking the Law. I don't know about you partner, but I'm pumped for this one!
