PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Alexandru Mircea (ranked 690 p4p, 1667 weight class) and Aron Egomi (ranked 95 p4p, 216 weight class). Egomi has chosen Hand of doom by Manowar 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.
