PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jimmy McDermot (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Danny Clark (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). McDermot's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, HL. Clark is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Nas Ft. Puffy - Hate Me Now. 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.
