PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Tito MC (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ahwal Mahtulak (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think MC might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to La Raza V.3. Ahwal Mahtulak has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
