PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Jon Yankowy (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Meas Chanta (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Yankowy comes into the arena with 1000 Flamen blaring out of the sound system. Chanta comes into a darkened arena with his song building. Papa Americano - We No Speak Americano kicks in, the lights come on and the crowd goes wild! What a showman! Meas Chanta told me before the fight that he's been watching a lot of DVDs so let's see if that helps him in this one! I can't wait to find out!
