PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Antonio Nagashima (ranked 1348 p4p, 157 weight class) and Gregory Motts (ranked 1262 p4p, 148 weight class). Nagashima kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is O Rappa- Anjos pra Quem Tem Fe. 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?
