PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Bla Bla (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Hazni Ali (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Bla might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to I'm gonna live forever. 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?
