PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Tetsuya Takimoto (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Felipe Alves (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Alves has chosen Bob Marley - Get Up Stand Up as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
