PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Max Huerta (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Andre Shankar (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Shankar comes into a darkened arena with his song building. "Them Belly Full" by Bob Marley kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! 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.
