PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a heavyweight MMA rules bout between Dean Gibson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Kuuya Ueda (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Ueda is bobbing his head along to his entrance song: UnderDog - Test Eagles. 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.
