PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Angelo Martinez (ranked 1895 p4p, 5203 weight class) and Rafael Gracie (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Gracie has a pretty significant injury - he really shouldn't be fighting right now but he's a warrior and he's here none the less! Rafael Gracie will no doubt be trying to keep this one on the feet, where he has a distinct advantage.
