PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Curtis Clay (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Julian Valdez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Clay might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Atari Teenage Riot - Revolution Action . Valdez has chosen so amazing as his entrance music. 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.
