PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a middleweight MMA rules bout between Mick Audet (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Johnny LaRusso (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Audet kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Rammstein, fuer frei. LaRusso has chosen You're The Best! as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Johnny LaRusso will no doubt be trying to keep this one on the feet, where he has a distinct advantage.
