PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Kutchek Gore (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Leonid Kirgiakos (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Gore might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Berzerker - No One Wins. 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.
