PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Aldo Barbados (ranked 2183 p4p, 106 weight class) and Yuri Sorokov (ranked 2505 p4p, 116 weight class). Barbados kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is What's It All For. 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.
