PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Gracie Ibarra (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ray Jones Jr (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Jones Jr comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Cant be touched kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Gracie Ibarra looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
