PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Inigo Montoya (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mathew Maynard (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Montoya might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Reptile Theme by Skrillex. Maynard has chosen do it 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.
