PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mr Joker (ranked 5452 p4p, 610 weight class) and Cron Spliffton (ranked 2682 p4p, 351 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Joker might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Jester of Genocide - Travis Scott. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
