PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Alastair Gridlock (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Enzo Moretti (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Gridlock might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Robbie Williams - Come Undone. Moretti has chosen CHANGES as his entrance music. Enzo Moretti has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
