SMASH: Cuntmara vs Big Mouth PBP Commentary |
Undercard bout
|
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Roman Kos (ranked 2376 p4p, 1543 weight class) and Rico Cole (ranked 296 p4p, 214 weight class). Cole is bouncing up and down as he enters the arena, backed by Gerardo's Rico Suave. Cole has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. Rico Cole struggled to make weight for this fight. He only made it down to 157.2lbs at the first attempt and had to take the additional two hours to make the official bout weight. Let's see how much it's taken out of him. Roman Kos has the better chin. Will he look to stand and bang today?

Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Lamont Banner (ranked 1465 p4p, 2261 weight class) and Johnny Bronco (ranked 204 p4p, 284 weight class). Bronco has chosen The Horses - Daryl Braithwaite as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. 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 Johnny Bronco was going to win. Let's see if he was right.

Coming up we have a bantamweight MMA rules bout between Ibrahim Cuntmara (ranked 214 p4p, 117 weight class) and Yasha Big Mouth (ranked 14 p4p, 6 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Cuntmara might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to $$ Hoes mad $$. Big Mouth has chosen Bigmouth Strikes Again as his entrance music. On his way into the cage it seems that Ibrahim Cuntmara has been attacked by a crazed fan! It looks like it might have been the just bleed guy! Luckily Ibrahim Cuntmara seems to be OK! I thought that lunatic was in prison!?
