PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Xander Scott (ranked 2546 p4p, 664 weight class) and Shane Lancaster (ranked 140 p4p, 39 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Scott might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to I DON'T GIVE A FUCK. Lancaster has chosen Slipknot - I Am Hated as his entrance music. 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.
