PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Matt Manners (ranked 3686 p4p, 464 weight class) and Jami Jarr (ranked 2318 p4p, 303 weight class). Jarr has chosen Wahhabi I as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
