PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Semmy Rizzo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Solomon Ares (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Rizzo might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to open road song. Ares is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by r this town i 101. Rizzo has a slight injury, which hopefully won't affect the fight too much. Semmy Rizzo has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
