PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Bruno Santos (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Billy Visa (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Santos might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Apaga mais nao bate. Bruno Santos looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
