PBP Commentary

Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mike McMiller (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Charles Zanzaza (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Zanzaza is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: John Parr - St Elmo's Fire (Man In motion). McMiller has a slight injury, which hopefully won't affect the fight too much. 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.
