PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Dingleberry Jones (ranked 2000 p4p, 531 weight class) and Hin Areni (ranked 183 p4p, 50 weight class). Jones comes to the cage accompanied by Hell Yeah. Areni is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Mosaique. 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.
