PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Jackson Teller (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jack Torrance (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Teller comes into the arena with God's Gonna Cut You Down by Johnny Cash blaring out of the sound system. The crowd seem to be enjoying Torrance's choice of entrance music: Shadow on the Sun by Audioslave. Both these guys are coming into the fight with injuries so let's see if that has a bearing on the fight. 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.
