PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Grimur Agnarsson (ranked 1150 p4p, 128 weight class) and Nosferatu Zodd (ranked 2407 p4p, 257 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Agnarsson might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Drop death - Squeel. Zodd has chosen Motorhead - Ace of spades 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.
