PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Thomas Martins (ranked 23688 p4p, 24419 weight class) and Frendy Saputra (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Martins might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Kwabs - Walk. Saputra has chosen Truckin' as his entrance music. Frendy Saputra has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
