PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Alexey Juravlev (ranked 1652 p4p, 176 weight class) and Mario Huber (ranked 2647 p4p, 268 weight class). Huber has chosen Enter Sandman as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Fingers crossed for an exciting fight - I'm sure both fighters are looking for a nice under the table bonus!
