PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Samir King (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jake Heke (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think King might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to When I Die - Genocide(Jusuf Dzilic). The crowd seem to be enjoying Heke's choice of entrance music: Hit Em Up. Jake Heke has the power to score a knockout today if he connects clean with Samir King's chin.
