PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Josh Cook (ranked 1160 p4p, 138 weight class) and Caius Cosades (ranked 730 p4p, 79 weight class). Cosades has chosen Morrowind as his entrance music. Josh Cook looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
