PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Carlos Condit (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Pep Hernandez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hernandez has chosen Superstar-Lupe Fiasco as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Condit is coming into this fight with a significant injury, which will no doubt have an effect on his cardio. Pep Hernandez has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
