PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Seth Mansour (ranked 546 p4p, 494 weight class) and Jarrod Beard (ranked 11 p4p, 33 weight class). Beard has chosen Ladies Love Country Boys - Trace Adkins as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
