PBP Commentary |

Lockley comes to the cage accompanied by Disney's Gummy Bears Intro (Rus). Mangler has chosen I Stand Alone as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
