PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Ichi Yakuza (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Larry Lang (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Yakuza might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Legend of Zelda, Overworld. Ichi Yakuza looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
