PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Tuvshintuguldur Munkhbayasgala (ranked 3098 p4p, 0 weight class) and Reynaldo Zamarripa (ranked 3639 p4p, 0 weight class). Zamarripa has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. 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.
