PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between antonio silva (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Pablo Nunes (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Nunes is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Riverside. antonio silva looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
