PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Chadwick Raffelburg (ranked 701 p4p, 2955 weight class) and Ben Barnes (ranked 103 p4p, 354 weight class). Raffelburg comes to the cage accompanied by The Hangman's Body Count - Volbeat. Chadwick Raffelburg looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
