PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Gaultier Girard (ranked 471 p4p, 75 weight class) and Doug Glatt (ranked 1804 p4p, 272 weight class). Glatt comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Killed by death kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
