PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Thiago Mendes (ranked 2301 p4p, 3524 weight class) and Chandler Walker (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Walker has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. Well, the cameraman is lingering on a pretty young lady for a bit too long there. Keep your eyes on the prize buddy or you'll miss the fighter intros!
