PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Viljo Suokas (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Humberto Cruz (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Suokas comes to the cage accompanied by Limp Bizkit - Break stuff. Cruz has chosen Deja Vu as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
