PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Andre Taylor (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and John Smith (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Taylor's entrance music is Body Head Anthem. A fine choice. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
