PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Jason Rogers (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Scott Jerman (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Rogers kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is "Black and Yellow" - Wiz Khalifa. Jerman has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. 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.
