PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Osgar MacGregor (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jussi Apila (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think MacGregor might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Scotland The Brave (Leonidas). Jussi Apila will no doubt be looking to use his reach advantage to good effect.
