PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Apollo Creed (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Glenn Schmitz (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Creed might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to James Brown - Living in America. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
