PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Sam Samuelson (ranked 1119 p4p, 0 weight class) and Johnny Lawrence (ranked 257 p4p, 0 weight class). Lawrence has chosen Sweep the Leg as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
