PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Tom Cassel (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ragnar Sigurdsson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Cassel might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Team America. Tom Cassel looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
