PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Rocky Balboa (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Wellington Costa (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Costa has chosen "Deixa A Vida Me Levar" by Zeca Pagodinho as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Wellington Costa is the more experienced fighter, so let's see if that makes a difference tonight.
