PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Johnny Smith (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Luis Fernando Jiménez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Smith might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Logic feat. Castro - Ballin. 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.
