PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Stadin Kingi (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Martin Clinton (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Kingi might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Kahvimaito. Stadin Kingi could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Martin Clinton's chin.
