RCD 76: Great Vengeance PBP Commentary |
Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Otaku Senzuri (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Traktor Chain (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Senzuri's ring entrance music is that housewives' favourite, Tori Amos-Code Red . Otaku Senzuri had real problems making weight for this fight. After initially coming in at 186.8lbs, he had two hours to make the official fight weight. He made it but it will have taken a lot out of him to cut those extra few pounds. Traktor Chain is staring across the cage at his opponent, tweaking his nipples.
