PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Alexander Woodrow (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Oren Hunter (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Woodrow kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is The Lumberjack Song. 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.
