PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Efraim Turban (ranked 354 p4p, 43 weight class) and Kron Gracie (ranked 1025 p4p, 116 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Turban might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Nadav Guedj - Golden Boy . Gracie is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by ROYCE GRACIE. Fingers crossed for an exciting fight - I'm sure both fighters are looking for a nice under the table bonus!
