PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ansgar Axelsson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mario Matiss (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Axelsson might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to one bourbon one scotch one beer. Matiss is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Ennio Morricone - The Ecstasy of Gold. This should be a great matchup!
