PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Sammy DeJesus (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jose Aldo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Aldo has chosen dmx as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Sammy DeJesus looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
