PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Patrick Thomas (ranked 824 p4p, 759 weight class) and Jordan Jackson (ranked 121 p4p, 107 weight class). Thomas comes to the cage accompanied by LUNIZ -- I GOT 5 ON IT. Jackson has chosen Puff Daddy-Victory (ft. Notorious B.I.G & Busta Rhymes) 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.
