PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Jaius Garcius (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Muhammed Castro (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Garcius might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Destroy Everything. Garcius is coming into this fight with a significant injury, which will no doubt have an effect on his cardio. I don't know about you partner, but I'm pumped for this one!
