PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Nate Diaz (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Naye Alidon (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Diaz's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Lil Wayne - Drop The World ft. Eminem. Nate Diaz looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
