PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Ras Butten (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Logan Mitchell (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Butten might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to El Guapo. Mitchell has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. Logan Mitchell is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
