PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Jeremy Arnason (ranked 1428 p4p, 3052 weight class) and Emilio Morterero (ranked 181 p4p, 316 weight class). Arnason's entrance music is Michael Jackson - Off The Wall. A fine choice. Morterero has chosen Tequila Sunrise (Spanish Version) as his entrance music. 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.
