PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Nick Earls (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jose Alavez (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Earls comes to the cage accompanied by Tommy Gun. Alavez has chosen You Don't Know by Eminem, 50 Cent, Chashis and Lloyd Banks as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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.
