PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Jack Douglas (ranked 585 p4p, 76 weight class) and Sni Probong (ranked 478 p4p, 63 weight class). Douglas comes to the cage accompanied by Go For a Soda by Kim Mitchell. Probong has chosen Bodhi Mandala as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
