PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Wade Caparzo (ranked 3754 p4p, 3487 weight class) and Robson Novaes (ranked 504 p4p, 474 weight class). Novaes is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Favela Venceu - MC's Cabelinho & Hariel. 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.
