PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Ben Foster (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Joe Green (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Green's choice of entrance music: eye of the tiger. 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.
