PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Kfier Asher (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jesse Cervantez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Cervantez has chosen Si Senor by Control Machete as his entrance music. Cervantez has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. Kfier Asher has the edge in experience - let's see if he can make that count tonight.
