PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Bill Dance (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Hiroko Matsumato (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Chooooooooon! I think Dance might be my favorite fighter, now he's come out to Broken Beating Scarred - Metallica. Matsumato has chosen My Pre Fight Warmup as his entrance music. Bill Dance could well score a knockout today. He has the power to get to Hiroko Matsumato's chin.
