PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Jimmy Logan (ranked 2455 p4p, 2736 weight class) and Paulie Gualtieri (ranked 280 p4p, 305 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Logan might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to The Wizard. 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.
