PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Adam Rabago (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Bob Huk (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Rabago might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Difference Between. 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.
