PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Rigoberto Lamas (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Yinger Yanger (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Lamas might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Brazilian National Anthem. Yinger Yanger will no doubt be looking to use his reach advantage to good effect.
