PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Jay Steel (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Antonio Rogeras (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Rogeras is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8de2W3rtZsA&feature=related. Rogeras has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. Jay Steel has a significant reach advantage - let's see if he can make it count.
