PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Juan Corrida (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Patrick Mannelly (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Corrida's entrance music is Shadowhunter. A fine choice. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
