PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Andre Jones (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Goaf Avelino (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Avelino has chosen Ela sai de saia de bicicletinha as his entrance music. Andre Jones looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
