PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Eric Avila (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Murphy McManus (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Avila's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, DMX - Ain't No Sunshine. 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.
