PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Dexter Rutecki (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jake VanVactor (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Rutecki might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Remember the Name. The crowd seem to be enjoying VanVactor's choice of entrance music: Like a Pimp by David Banner. Both fighters will be looking to make this an exciting fight for the fans, I'm sure!
