PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between John Schnatter (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jacques Mubarak (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Mubarak is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Steel Panther - Gloryhole. 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.
