PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Eddy Cordo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Takamoura Mamarou (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Mamarou has chosen R Kelly-World Greatest as his entrance music. Cordo has a slight injury, which hopefully won't affect the fight too much. 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?
