PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Ritchie Swiper (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Xavier Xahli (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Swiper might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to High Hopes. Xahli has chosen Crazy Train by Ozzy Osbourne as his entrance music. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
