PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Ricky Steamboat (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and James Franklin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Steamboat might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Dragon Fire. Ricky Steamboat has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
