PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Jonathan Goolay (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Dennis Gracie (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Goolay comes into the arena with Boats n Hos blaring out of the sound system. Gracie has chosen Streight Up Menace as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
