PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Miguel Arcanjo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Turbo Jones (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Arcanjo comes into the arena with Sangue de Bairro by Naçao Zumbi blaring out of the sound system. Jones has a pretty significant injury - he really shouldn't be fighting right now but he's a warrior and he's here none the less! Miguel Arcanjo has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
