PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Jake The Dog (ranked 1021 p4p, 137 weight class) and Aleksandr Sinytsyn (ranked 756 p4p, 108 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think The Dog might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Meditation Time. 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.
