PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Florijan Jagatic (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and James Thomas (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Thomas's choice of entrance music: a violent reaction. Jagatic has a slight injury, which hopefully won't affect the fight too much. Florijan Jagatic looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
