PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Cain Colbert (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Optimus Prime (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Prime has chosen Metalingus by Alter Bridge as his entrance music. 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?
