PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Zygmunt Krol (ranked 1863 p4p, 2007 weight class) and Semmy Cobb (ranked 256 p4p, 276 weight class). Krol comes to the cage accompanied by Hammer Smashed Face Live. Cobb is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by You dropped the Bomb on me. 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.
