PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Avery Paul (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Ricardo Gonzales (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Paul might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Dropkick Murphys-Rocky Road to Dublin. Gonzales has chosen Crazy as his entrance music. 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.
