PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Malcolm King (ranked 3798 p4p, 20624 weight class) and Leandro Lo (ranked 145 p4p, 302 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think King might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to YoungBoy Never Broke Again – White Teeth. Leandro Lo will no doubt be looking to use his reach advantage to good effect.
