PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Slade Castle (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Yoshihiro Asai (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Castle might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Seizure of Power by Marilyn Manson. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
