PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a featherweight MMA rules bout between Tom Quin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Mike Marin (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Quin kept the crowd waiting but all that was forgotten when his ring entrance music started. The incomparable musical genius that is Baha Men-Holla. Marin has chosen Mama Said Knock You Out as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Rumors backstage are that the fighters have been paid to keep it standing but we know that would never happen in MMA!
