PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Hoban Washburn (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ryu Chyn (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Washburn might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Magic Carpet Ride. Chyn has chosen Como Tudo Deve Ser as his entrance music. Hoban Washburn has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
