PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Cam Newton (ranked 1827 p4p, 283 weight class) and Levan Revazshvili (ranked 3150 p4p, 438 weight class). Newton kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Superman. Revazshvili has chosen Georgia National Anthem 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.
