PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Frankie Green (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Phil Payne (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Green might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Mac Miller- Donald Trump. Rumors backstage are that the fighters have been paid to keep it standing but we know that would never happen in MMA!
