PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Kieran Foran (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Haste The Day (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Foran might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Barbra Streisand by Duck Sauce. Both fighters look fresh as a daisy as they make their way towards the cage.
