PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Devon Malcolm (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jonathan Lawrence (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Lawrence comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Cypress Hill: Another Victory kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! 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.
