PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Oscar Gage (ranked 1164 p4p, 891 weight class) and Macka Briggs (ranked 40 p4p, 33 weight class). Briggs is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Stepping Razor by Peter Tosh. 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.
