PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Quan Richardson (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Travis Pinder (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Richardson might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to O Leddoit. The crowd seem to be enjoying Pinder's choice of entrance music: Drowning Pool's Let The Bodies Hit The Floor. Quan Richardson could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Travis Pinder's chin.
