PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Jose Pettis (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Marco Stefano (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Stefano is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Something Stupid - Frank Sianatra. 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.
