PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Diego Sanchez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Aleksander Krosnov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Sanchez might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Not Afraid - Eminen. Aleksander Krosnov will no doubt be looking to use his reach advantage to good effect.
