PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Lamar Gordon (ranked 451 p4p, 598 weight class) and Djordje Stankovic (ranked 61 p4p, 84 weight class). Gordon comes to the cage accompanied by Coming Home - Ditty ft. Skylar Grey. Stankovic has chosen Post Malone ft. 21 Savage - rockstar as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
