PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Zack Allan (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Noel Contemprato (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Allan might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to FLAMES. Contemprato has chosen This Is How We 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.
