PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Taylor Deleon (ranked 3763 p4p, 24744 weight class) and Anon Cummings (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Deleon comes to the cage accompanied by Alright-Kendrick Lamar. Cummings has chosen 2k Freestyle as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Cummings has a niggling injury. He would have liked to come in 100% fit but that's not always possible. Taylor Deleon has the edge in experience - let's see if he can make that count tonight.
