PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Friedrich Alzheimer (ranked 1 p4p, 1 weight class) and Junior Vilson (ranked 45 p4p, 3 weight class). Alzheimer comes to the cage accompanied by The Worlds Greatest. The crowd seem to be enjoying Vilson's choice of entrance music: Haiti Voodoo Music. 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?
