PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Anthony Ochoa (ranked 504 p4p, 708 weight class) and Jeremiah Hill (ranked 70 p4p, 100 weight class). Ochoa kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Gang Signs by The Game. 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.
