PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Michael Brakeley (ranked 255 p4p, 34 weight class) and Daniel Dimitrov (ranked 365 p4p, 54 weight class). Brakeley comes to the cage accompanied by Woke up this Morning. Dimitrov is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: Drake - Energy. 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.
