PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Irvin Welch (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Tyson Duke (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Welch might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Iggy Pop - Lust for life. 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.
