PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Alexander Asturiem (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Remy Lava (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Asturiem might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Fernandinho - Sede de Justiça. The crowd seem to be enjoying Lava's choice of entrance music: Numero 1. Alexander Asturiem has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?
