PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Dj Sanchez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kazushi Sakuraba (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Sanchez might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to WALK BY PANTERA. Sanchez has a slight injury, which hopefully won't affect the fight too much. Dj Sanchez is staring across the cage at his opponent, tweaking his nipples... Tweaking his own nipples that is.
