PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Julius Schoonover (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Haplopelma Hainanum (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Schoonover might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Daylight - Matt and Kim. Hainanum has chosen Kryptonite by Three Doors Down 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.
