PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Sheng Chung Lin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Esteban Scott (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). The crowd seem to be enjoying Scott's choice of entrance music: Scotty Doesn't Know. 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.
