PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Paco Da Man (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Alexey Rykov (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Da Man might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Tenacious D - Beelzeboss. Alexey Rykov has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
