PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Sergio Vargas (ranked 3358 p4p, 414 weight class) and Randy Randleman (ranked 3335 p4p, 410 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Vargas might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to a warrior's call. Randleman has chosen Bloodhound Gang - Bad Touch 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.
