PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jeff Killington (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Predrag Stojanic (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Killington's entrance music is Deadman Walking. A fine choice. Stojanic has a pretty significant injury - he really shouldn't be fighting right now but he's a warrior and he's here none the less! Jeff Killington could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Predrag Stojanic's chin.
