PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Charles Cooper (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Temujin Lee (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Cooper might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to s.mouse - slap my elbow. 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?
