FINAL SUPREMACY PBP Commentary |
Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Bruce Alvarez Banner (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Jim Carlo (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Banner comes to the cage accompanied by 5 Minutes Alone by Pantera. The crowd seem to be enjoying Carlo's choice of entrance music: NFG-Anthem for the Unwanted. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Jim Carlo was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
