PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Winky Monk (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Archie James (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Monk kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is elephant man haters. 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.
