PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Darius Miller (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Corey Parker (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Parker is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Heard it through the grapevine - Marvin Gaye. 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.
