PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Dexter Redshaw (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Sasha Lagoo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Redshaw might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to ACDC - Skies on Fire. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
