PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Matt Quin (ranked 18 p4p, 3 weight class) and Russian Obama (ranked 24 p4p, 4 weight class). Quin's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Captain Jack - Iko Iko. Obama has chosen 5 minutes Alone 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.
