PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Erco De Beer (ranked 2994 p4p, 3513 weight class) and Nadeem Andersen (ranked 356 p4p, 405 weight class). Andersen has chosen A Tribe Called Quest - Can I Kick It? 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.
