PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Adrik Vasilev (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Castor Rollins (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Vasilev might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Mr. Probz - Waves (Robin Schulz Remix Radio Edit). Castor Rollins has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
