PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between El Taquito Pantalones (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Herman Holmes (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Pantalones might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PHU-AJTn0I8. Holmes has chosen F**king Hostile as his entrance music. 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.
