PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Claudio Filho (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Alejandro Gonzalez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Gonzalez has chosen By Demons Be Driven as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Claudio Filho looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
