PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Bruce Banner (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Aurelius Schultes (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Banner might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Pump Up The Jam. 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.
