PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Nikolai Peterson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dusan Kikovic (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Peterson might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Blind Eye Halo. Dusan Kikovic has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
