PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Jakob Rolf (ranked 834 p4p, 972 weight class) and Alexander Korolev (ranked 115 p4p, 132 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Rolf might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to AVGN Theme Song. Korolev is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Holding Out For A Hero (EuroMash). 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.
