PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Katsurou De La Bambasio (ranked 5114 p4p, 589 weight class) and Duke Lupus (ranked 5322 p4p, 608 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think De La Bambasio might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Steve James - Warrior feat. LIGHTS. Duke Lupus is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
