PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Jesse Pinkman (ranked 79 p4p, 92 weight class) and Sean O Malley (ranked 14 p4p, 11 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Pinkman might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Quavo & Takeoff - Hotel Lobby . O Malley is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Goat Talk- Sugar Sean. This should be a great matchup!
