PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Corwin Anstey (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Vito Corleone (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Corleone has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. Vito Corleone has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
