PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Leeroy Jenkins (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Chris Zyb (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Jenkins might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Rock On. Zyb has chosen "Battle" by Gangstarr as his entrance music. 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.
