PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Efim Gracie (ranked 4204 p4p, 24786 weight class) and Kaleb Estrada (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Gracie comes to the cage accompanied by The Reunion- Eminem ft. Royce Da 5'9. Estrada has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. Efim Gracie looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
