PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Erik Veloso (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and MAX CONDOR (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Veloso comes to the cage accompanied by Bonde da Oskley - Cachorrinho. CONDOR has a pretty significant injury - he really shouldn't be fighting right now but he's a warrior and he's here none the less! Erik Veloso looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
