PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a light heavyweight MMA rules bout between Mr Untouchable (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Rocky Thoma (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Thoma has chosen eye of the tiger - surviour as his entrance music. Mr Untouchable looks tired to me. Hopefully he has got enough gas left in the tank to put in a good performance.
