PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Charles Whitman (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Buggy Clown (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Whitman might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Welcome To The Jungle. 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.
