PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Raise Hell (ranked 90 p4p, 16 weight class) and Gray Maynard (ranked 661 p4p, 67 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Hell might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Motörhead - Hellraiser. 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.
