PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Aigars Senko (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Trinidad Jackson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Senko comes into the arena with will.i.am T.H.E. (The Hardest Ever) blaring out of the sound system. Jackson is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Nelly - Here Comes the Boom. 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.
