PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Toe Jam (ranked 314 p4p, 1062 weight class) and Zakir Jumayev (ranked 49 p4p, 157 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Jumayev's choice of entrance music: Side to Side. 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.
