PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Michael Dube (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Grayson Davis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Dube might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Notorious B.I.G. - Big Poppa. Davis has chosen Epic - Faith No More as his entrance music. Michael Dube has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
