PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Thomas Quessy (ranked 2516 p4p, 1830 weight class) and Koba Takanori (ranked 305 p4p, 241 weight class). Quessy kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is NTM - Ma Benz. 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.
