PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Soloman van der Vaart (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mr Guy (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). van der Vaart comes into the arena with Nah Mean blaring out of the sound system. Guy is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Mother. 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.
